Description
Misonidazole is a nitroimidazole with radiosensitizing and antineoplastic properties. Nitroimidazoles, including misonidazole, specifically accumulate as nitro anion radicals and their metabolites in hypoxic cells. The metabolites of misonidazole can themselves be cytotoxic or they can increase the chemosensitivity and radiosensitivity of the target cells. Misonidazole and derivatives, including fluoromisonidazole, are used in the imaging of hypoxic regions in tumors and in the cardiovascular system.

Uses
Antiprotozoal (Trichomonas). Misonidazole can be used as a potential hypoxic cancer cell radiosensitizer and DNA binding and nicking agent. The metabolites of misonidazole can themselves be cytotoxic or they can increase the chemosensitivity and radiosensitivity of the target cells
