  • as component of dendritic cell conditioning medium and in the inhibition of ALA dehydratase (ALAD) in dendritic cells(50)
  • as an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis in human mononuclear cells(51) and HeLa cells(52)
  • as a standard for the quantification of succinylacetone from Plasmodium falciparum cultures(53)

Biochem/physiol Actions
