About this molecule
Nitisinone is an inhibitor of the tyrosine catabolism that is used to treat hereditary tyrosinemia, type 1, in which accumulation of intermediates of tyrosine metabolism causes severe and progressive hepatic and renal injury. Nitisinone has been associated with mild, transient serum aminotransferase elevations, but has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury or jaundice.
