aminolevulinic acid has been researched along with Paralysis in 2 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.
Paralysis: A general term most often used to describe severe or complete loss of muscle strength due to motor system disease from the level of the cerebral cortex to the muscle fiber. This term may also occasionally refer to a loss of sensory function. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p45)

| "Urinary excretion of porphyrin precursors delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG) and total porphyrins was measured during intoxication of rats with 2,4-dithiobiuret (DTB), a chemical which produces delayed-onset neuromuscular weakness, in an attempt to ascertain whether or not DTB poisoning in the rat would serve as an animal model of the neurologic symptoms of acute intermittent porphyria." | 3.67 | Excretion of porphyrins and porphyrin precursors during neuromuscular paralysis produced by dithiobiuret.
