Abstract

Arginine has been used by millions of athletes over the past 20 years to enhance production of human growth hormone. The effects of arginine supplementation include increased fat burning and muscle building, enhanced immunity, and improvement in erectile function in men. Excessive doses of basic amino acids such as ethionine, methionine and lysine are known to damage the rat pancreas. Recent studies have demonstrated that excessive doses of arginine induce necrotizing pancreatitis in rats. In this article, we report a 16-year-old male patient hospitalized in our clinic because of severe pain in upper abdomen, nausea and vomiting who was suspected to have arginine-induced acute pancreatitis.

Özet

Arginin, son 20 yılda insan “growth” hormon üretimini arttırmak amacıyla milyonlarca atlet tarafından kullanılmaktadır. Arginin desteğinin etkileri; yağların yakılmasını arttırmak, vücut geliştirmek, immünitenin güçlendirilmesi ve erkeklerde erektil fonksiyonların arttırılmasıdır. Etionin, metionin ve lizin gibi temel aminoasitlerin yüksek dozlarda rat pankreasında hasara yol açtığı bilinmektedir. Son çalışmalarda, arginin’in yüksek dozlarda ratlarda nekrotizan pankreatite yol açtığı gösterilmiştir. Bu makalede, üst abdomende ciddi ağrı, bulantı ve kusma nedeniyle kliniğimize yatırılan ve arginin’e bağlı akut pankreatit geliştiği düşünülen 16 yaşındaki bir erkek hasta sunulmuştur.
