aminolevulinic acid and Behavior Disorders

aminolevulinic acid has been researched along with Behavior Disorders in 3 studies

Aminolevulinic Acid: A compound produced from succinyl-CoA and GLYCINE as an intermediate in heme synthesis. It is used as a PHOTOCHEMOTHERAPY for actinic KERATOSIS.
5-aminolevulinic acid : The simplest delta-amino acid in which the hydrogens at the gamma position are replaced by an oxo group. It is metabolised to protoporphyrin IX, a photoactive compound which accumulates in the skin. Used (in the form of the hydrochloride salt)in combination with blue light illumination for the treatment of minimally to moderately thick actinic keratosis of the face or scalp.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We conclude that in some porphyric patients treatment with erythropoietin reduces urinary delta-aminolaevulinic acid, porphobilinogen and porphyrin levels with an increase in well-being and a reduction in the severity of porphyria attacks."5.10Erythropoietin treatment in the neuropsychiatric porphyrias.
