The monoamine oxidase inhibition properties of C6-mono- and N3/C6-disubstituted derivatives of 4(3H)-quinazolinone
(Elsevier, 2019)
Parkinson’s disease is characterised by the death of the nigrostriatal neurons and depletion of striatal dopamine. The standard symptomatic therapy consists of dopamine replacement with l-dopa, the metabolic precursor of ...
Novel monoamine oxidase inhibitors based on the privileged 2-imidazoline molecular framework
(Elsevier, 2019)
Series of structurally diverse 2-imidazoline derivatives have been synthesized by condensation of substituted aldehydes with ethylenediamine, Pd-catalyzed N-arylation of 2-imidazolines and by the formation of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles ...
Methylene blue analogues with marginal monoamine oxidase inhibition retain antidepressant-like activity
(ACS, 2018)
Methylene blue (MB) possesses diverse medical applications. Among these, MB presents with antidepressant-like effects in animals and has shown promise in clinical trials for the treatment of mood disorders. As an antidepressant, ...
The inhibition of monoamine oxidase by esomeprazole
(Thieme, 2013)
Virtual screening of a library of drugs has suggested that esomeprazole, the S-enantiomer of omeprazole, may possess binding affinities for the active sites of the monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B enzymes. Based on this ...
Sulfanylphthalonitrile analogues as selective and potent inhibitors of monoamine oxidase B
(Elsevier, 2012)
It has recently been reported that nitrile containing compounds frequently act as potent monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitors. Modelling studies suggest that this high potency inhibition may rely, at least in part, on ...
Azure B, a metabolite of methylene blue, is a high-potency, reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase
(Elsevier, 2012)
Methylene blue (MB) has been shown to act at multiple cellular and molecular targets and as a result
possesses diverse medical applications. Among these is a high potency reversible inhibition of monoamine
oxidase A ...
Selected C7-substituted chromone derivatives as monoamine oxidase inhibitors
(Elsevier, 2012)
A series of C7-substituted chromone (1-benzopyran-4-one) derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of recombinant human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. The chromones are structurally related to a series of ...
Synthesis and evaluation of 2-substituted 4(3H)-quinazolinone thioether derivatives as monoamine oxidase inhibitors
(Elsevier, 2018)
In the present study, a series of fourteen 2-mercapto-4(3H)-quinazolinone derivatives was synthesised and evaluated as potential inhibitors of the human monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes. Quinazolinone is the oxidised form ...
Evaluation of selected natural compounds as dual inhibitors of catechol-o-methyltransferase and monoamine oxidase
(Bentham Science, 2019)
Background: The most effective symptomatic treatment of Parkinson’s disease remains the metabolic precursor of dopamine, L-dopa. To enhance the efficacy of L-dopa, it is often combined with inhibitors of the enzymes, ...
Determining the potential sites of neural adaptation to cross-education: implications for the cross-education of muscle strength
(Springer, 2018)
Cross-education describes the strength gain in the opposite, untrained limb following a unilateral strength training program. Since its discovery in 1894, several studies now confirm the existence of cross-education in ...
