Arginase Activity in <i>Eisenia andrei </i>Coelomocytes: Function in the Earthworm Innate Response
Arginase is the manganese metalloenzyme catalyzing the conversion of l-arginine to l-ornithine and urea. In vertebrates, arginase is involved in the immune response, tissue regeneration, and wound healing and is an important marker of alternative anti-inflammatory polarization of macrophages. In inv...
