Applications: A labeled non-protein alpha-amino acid. High levels in the blood makes a person more prone to endothelial cell injury, which leads to inflamed blood vessels, atherogenesis, and ischemic injury. A possible risk factor for coronary artery disease. Correlated with the occurrence of blood clots, heart attacks and strokes. Also associated with early pregnancy lost and neural tube defects.
