Methylguanidine (MG) is a simple organic compound with the formula CH6N3. It is a colorless solid that is soluble in water. MG is a natural product found in living organisms, and is also synthesized industrially. MG is a potent inhibitor of various enzymes, including acetylcholinesterase and nitric oxide synthase. It has been shown to have a variety of biological effects, including anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and neuroprotective activities. It is a known neurotoxin and is linked to the onset of neurodegenerative diseases. MG is also implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. As a result, it is an important area of research to better understand its physiological role and its impact on health.'
