MeSH definition : 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.;
