A chemical compound found in living organisms that functions in cell growth and stress responses.
Derived from agma (the condition of fragmentation) + -ine (chemical suffix). Named for its production through the fragmentation of arginine during cellular processes.
Your cells produce agmatine when they're under stress, and it acts like a chemical bouncer—helping regulate what gets into cells and potentially protecting against various diseases and aging.
