Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Mus musculus arginine decarboxylase has been shown to be upregulated from the macrophage-like cell line RAW-264.7 in response to lipopolysaccharides and cytokines resulting in more intracellular agmatine. Bacterial agmatine secretion after infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa is evident in changes in the inflammatory phenotype including increased total cell count up
Homo sapiens enzyme activity and agmatine levels in human sputum peak during cystic fibrosis illness, decrease with treatment, and is positively correlated with inflammatory cytokines up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism agmatine is synthesized by the arginine decarboxylase pathway, but is essentially undetectable if the aguBA operon is left intact Mus musculus

physiological function in bacteria agmatine serves as a precursor to polyamine synthesis and enhances biofilm development in some strains of the respiratory pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Agmatine is at the center of a competing metabolism in the human lung during airways infections and is influenced by the metabolic phenotypes of the infecting pathogens, e.g. Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The agu2ABCA' operon in Pseudomonas aeruginosa has a mechanism to detect extracellular agmatine and react by augmenting its biofilm. Pseudomonas aeruginosa encounters agmatine in lung infections, and this triggers planktonic pseudomonads to form a biofilm Pseudomonas aeruginosa
physiological function in humans, enzyme-produced agmatine is a neurotransmitter with affinities towards alpha2-adrenoreceptors, serotonin receptors, and may inhibit nitric oxide synthase. Agmatine exposure to inflammatory cells and in mice demonstrate its role as a direct immune activator with effects on TNF-alpha production, likely through NF-kappaB activation Mus musculus
