Abstract

Arginine is an essential amino acid for birds and young mammalian animals, and conditioned-essential amino acid for adult mammals. Arginine deficiency or overdoes in a diet would significantly decreased ingesting behavior. Research showed that arginine could be converted to nitric oxide by nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in an animal body, and the latter has been discovered to regulate feed intake as downstream signal molecular of anorexic and orexigenic hormones. In addition, agmatine, produced from arginine decarboxylation, can stimulate feeding behavior via activating adrenergic receptors. The metabolism of arginine, the effect of arginine on animal ingesting, and the interaction of arginine and the main ingesting regulatory factors were reviewed in this paper.
