aminopropionitrile and Myopia

aminopropionitrile has been researched along with Myopia in 5 studies

Aminopropionitrile: Reagent used as an intermediate in the manufacture of beta-alanine and pantothenic acid.

Myopia: A refractive error in which rays of light entering the EYE parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the RETINA when accommodation (ACCOMMODATION, OCULAR) is relaxed. This results from an overly curved CORNEA or from the eyeball being too long from front to back. It is also called nearsightedness.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To examine whether collagen crosslinking is important for the regulation of refractive development, tree shrews were treated with agents that block collagen crosslinking [beta-aminoproprionitrile (beta-APN), or D-penicillamine (DPA)] and underwent monocular deprivation (MD) of form vision by eyelid closure to induce myopia."3.69Prevention of collagen crosslinking increases form-deprivation myopia in tree shrew. ( McBrien, NA; Norton, TT, 1994)
"beta-Aminopropionitrile is known to inhibit cross-linking of collagen and is expected to enhance the flexibility of scar tissue, thereby reducing wound contracture and regression after RK."1.27Effects of topical treatment with beta-aminopropionitrile after radial keratotomy in the rabbit. ( Armeniades, CD; Carroll, J; Constance, G; Jenkins, DE; Moorhead, LC, 1984)
