17874066 Kanda H, Kikushima M, Homma-Takeda S, Sumi D, Endo A, Toyama T, Miura N, Naganuma A, Kumagai Y: Downregulation of arginase II and renal apoptosis by inorganic mercury: overexpression of arginase II reduces its apoptosis. Arch Toxicol. 2008 Feb;82(2):67-73. Epub 2007 Sep 14.

A single exposure to mercuric chloride (HgCl (2), 1 mg/kg) in rats resulted in a dramatic time-dependent reduction in the activity of arginase II in the kidney; for example, the activity at 48 h after exposure was 31% of the control level.
