Type-B monoamine oxidase inhibitors in neurological diseases: clinical applications based on preclinical findings. [PDF]
Type-B monoamine oxidase inhibitors, encompassing selegiline, rasagiline, and safinamide, are available to treat Parkinson's disease. These drugs ameliorate motor symptoms and improve motor fluctuation in the advanced stages of the disease. There is also

Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors [PDF]
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the various classes of chemical compounds, which have an inhibitory action on monoamine oxidase (MAO). The chapter discusses the current theories of the function of monoamine oxidase and the possible mechanism by which the MAO inhibitors (MAOI) react with MAO.

N-methyl-N-((1-methyl-5-(3-(1-(2-methylbenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)propoxy)-1H-indol-2-yl)methyl)prop-2-yn-1-amine, a new cholinesterase and monoamine oxidase dual inhibitor [PDF]
On the basis of N-((5-(3-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)propoxy)-1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methyl)-N-methylprop-2-yn-1-amine (II, ASS234) and QSAR predictions, in this work we have designed, synthesized, and evaluated a number of new indole derivatives from which ...

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

Reactive oxygen-related diseases: therapeutic targets and emerging clinical indications [PDF]
SIGNIFICANCE Enhanced levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been associated with different disease states. Most attempts to validate and exploit these associations by chronic antioxidant therapies have provided disappointing results. Hence, the

Pharmacology and clinical drug candidates in redox medicine [PDF]
SIGNIFICANCE Oxidative stress is suggested to be a disease mechanism common to a wide range of disorders affecting human health. However, so far, the pharmacotherapeutic exploitation of this, for example, based on chemical scavenging of pro-oxidant ...

Monoamine oxidase-A modulates apoptotic cell death induced by staurosporine in human neuroblastoma cells [PDF]
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are mitochondrial enzymes which control the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain and dietary amines in peripheral tissues via oxidative deamination. MAO has also been implicated in cell signalling. In this study, we describe
