Susceptibility to methamphetamine dependence associated with high transcriptional activity alleles of VNTR polymorphism in the promoter region of monoamine oxidase A (MAOA)

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2016
Background and purpose: Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA, Xp11.3; OMIM: 309850) can modulate the level of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system. A 30 bp variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) genetic polymorphism on the promoter region of the MAOA ...

(E)-3-Heteroarylidenechroman-4-ones as potent and selective monoamine oxidase-B inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A series of (E)-3-heteroarylidenechroman-4-ones (1a-r) was designed, synthesized and investigated in vitro for their ability to inhibit the enzymatic activity of both human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) isoforms, hMAO-A and hMAO-B.

Comparative Bioequivalence and Safety Evaluation of Ibuprofen/Phenylephrine Hydrochloride Fixed‐Dose Combination Tablets in Healthy Chinese Volunteers

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract This single‐center, randomized, open‐label bioequivalence program compared two fixed‐dose combination (FDC) tablets containing ibuprofen (200 mg) and phenylephrine hydrochloride (10 mg) from different manufacturers in healthy Chinese adults under fasting and fed conditions. A three‐period, partially replicated crossover design was used for the

Monoamine oxidase-A activity is required for clonal tumorsphere formation by human breast tumor cells

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Biology Letters, 2019
Background Breast tumor growth and recurrence are driven by an infrequent population of breast tumor-initiating cells (BTIC). We and others have reported that the frequency of BTIC is orders of magnitude higher when breast tumor cells are propagated in ...

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Moderating effect of gender and MAOA genotype on aggression and violence

open access: yesRevista Médica del Hospital General de México, 2015
Introduction: Biological sex contributes to aggression, but there are other factors, like gender and genes, which have also proven to contribute to this behavior. Gender is defined as the stereotyped characteristics of each sex, but currently four gender
