5-methoxypsoralen has been researched along with Demyelinating Diseases in 1 studies
5-Methoxypsoralen: A linear furanocoumarin that has phototoxic and anti-inflammatory properties, with effects similar to METHOXSALEN. It is used in PUVA THERAPY for the treatment of PSORIASIS.
5-methoxypsoralen : A 5-methoxyfurocoumarin that is psoralen substituted by a methoxy group at position 5.
Demyelinating Diseases: Diseases characterized by loss or dysfunction of myelin in the central or peripheral nervous system.
