Evaluation of natural and synthetic 1,4-naphthoquinones as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Wiley, 2016)
Previous reports have documented that 1,4-naphtho-
quinones act as inhibitors of the monoamine oxidase
(MAO) enzymes. In particular, fractionation of the
extracts of cured tobacco leafs has led to the charac-
terization ...
2-Benzylidene-1-indanone derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Elsevier, 2016)
In the present study, a series of twenty-two 2-benzylidene-1-indanone derivatives were synthesised and evaluated as inhibitors of recombinant human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. The 2-benzylidene-1-indanone derivatives ...
Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by benzoxathiolone analogues
(Elsevier, 2016)
Inhibitors of the monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes are considered useful therapeutic agents, and are used in the clinic for the treatment of depressive illness and Parkinson’s disease. In addition, MAO inhibitors are also ...
2-Heteroarylidene-1-indanone derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Elsevier, 2016)
In the present study a series of fifteen 2-heteroarylidene-1-indanone derivatives were synthesised and evaluated as inhibitors of recombinant human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. These compounds are structurally related ...
An evaluation of synthetic indole derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Elsevier, 2016)
In a recent study we have shown that several indole-5,6-dicarbonitrile derivatives are potent inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. To expand on these results and to further determine structure–activity ...
Kaempferol as selective human MAO‑A inhibitor: analytical detection in Calabrian red wines, biological and molecular modeling studies
(ACS, 2016)
The purpose of this work was to determine the kaempferol content in three red wines of Calabria, a southern
Italian region with a great number of certified food products. Considering that wine cultivar, climate, and soil ...
Leflunomide, a reversible monoamine oxidase inhibitor
(Bentham Science, 2016)
A screening study aimed at identifying inhibitors of the enzyme, monoamine oxidase (MAO), among clinically used drugs have indicated that the antirheumatic drug, leflunomide, is an inhibitor of both MAO isoforms. Leflunomide ...
Inhibition of human monoamine oxidase: biological and molecular modeling studies on selected natural flavonoids
(ACS, 2016)
Naturally occurring flavonoids display a plethora of different biological activities, but emerging evidence suggests that this class of compounds may also act as antidepressant agents endowed with multiple mechanisms of ...
Carbamate substituted 2-amino-4,6-diphenylpyrimidines as adenosine receptor antagonists
(Elsevier, 2016)
A novel series of carbamate substituted 2-amino-4,6-diphenylpyrimidines was evaluated as potential dual adenosine A1 and A2A receptor antagonists. The majority of the synthesised compounds exhibited promising dual affinities, ...
