The evaluation of 1-tetralone and 4-chromanone derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Springer, 2020)
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is of much clinical relevance, and inhibitors of this enzyme are used in the treatment for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders such as depression and Parkinson’s disease. The present ...
Monoamine oxidase inhibition by Kavalactones from Kava (Piper Methysticum)
(Thieme, 2019)
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are key metabolic enzymes for neurotransmitter and dietary amines and are targets for the treatment of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. This study examined the MAO inhibition ...
Optimization of pyrrolo[3,4‐f]indole‐5,7‐dione and indole‐5,6‐dicarbonitrile derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Wiley, 2019)
In recent studies, we have investigated the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition properties of pyrrolo[3,4‐f]indole‐5,7‐dione and indole‐5,6‐dicarbonitrile derivatives. Since numerous high potency MAO inhibitors are present ...
1,3,4-Oxadiazol-2-ylbenzenesulfonamides as privileged structures for the inhibition of monoamine oxidase B
(Elsevier, 2019)
The present study investigates the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition properties of a series of ten 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylbenzenesulfonamides. The target compounds were synthesized by dehydration of the corresponding ...
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 ...
