Description

Application

5-Aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride has been used to activate or inhibit heme biosynthesis in HeLa and K562 cell lines. It has also been used in photodynamic therapy for A431 tumor bearing mice.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Intermediate in heme biosynthesis.

5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is an intermediate in heme biosynthesis and is useful in cancer treatment. It is a non-protein amino acid. 5-ALA also has applications in the field of agriculture. It is being studied as an inducing reagent for protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) dependent fluorescence diagnosis of metastatic lymph nodes. 5-ALA is used for photodynamic therapy of diseases, such as Paget′s disease and HPV infection-associated cervical condylomata acuminata.
