fusaric acid and Muscle Relaxation

fusaric acid has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 1 studies

Fusaric Acid: A picolinic acid derivative isolated from various Fusarium species. It has been proposed for a variety of therapeutic applications but is primarily used as a research tool. Its mechanisms of action are poorly understood. It probably inhibits DOPAMINE BETA-HYDROXYLASE, the enzyme that converts dopamine to norepinephrine. It may also have other actions, including the inhibition of cell proliferation and DNA synthesis.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.
