Documented Uses

• A naturally occurring mycotoxin that is associated with motor disorders in livestock and humans that have ingested contaminated food; Used as a research chemical; Not commercially produced in the US; [HSDB]
• Research mitochondrial inhibitor for injection into test animals
• 3-Nitropropionic acid is a neurotoxin produced by certain plants and fungi, such as those of the genus Astragalus, Coronilla, Lotus, Hippocrepis, Scorpiurus, and Securigera. It produces symptoms similar to that of Huntington disease and this thus often used to produced animal models for the study of the disease. (A2967, A2968, A2970)
• (1977) NOT PRODUCED COMMERCIALLY IN US
• (1979) NOT PRODUCED COMMERCIALLY IN US
• Drugs used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular HYPERTENSION regardless of pharmacological mechanism. Among the antihypertensive agents are DIURETICS; (especially DIURETICS, THIAZIDE); ADRENERGIC BETA-ANTAGONISTS; ADRENERGIC ALPHA-ANTAGONISTS; ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME INHIBITORS; CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKERS; GANGLIONIC BLOCKERS; and VASODILATOR AGENTS.
