(R)-Metirosine is primarily used in neuroscience research to study catecholamine depletion and its effects on behavior and neurotransmission. It serves as a critical tool for investigating Parkinson’s disease, hypertension, and pheochromocytoma due to its ability to inhibit endogenous dopamine and norepinephrine synthesis. Researchers also employ this compound in metabolic pathway studies and receptor binding assays. Its enantiomeric purity makes it particularly valuable for stereospecific pharmacological investigations.
