Novas estratégias terapêuticas para o tratamento da depressão: uma visão da química medicinal

Química Nova, 2003
Depression is a widespread humor disturbance promoted mainly by depletion of biogenic neurotransmitter amines involved in the CNS synapses. Effective drug treatments for depression have been available for more than forty years.

Psilocybin in alcohol use disorder and comorbid depressive symptoms: Results from a feasibility randomized clinical trial

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Psilocybin has emerged as a potential treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD), but early efficacy data are inconsistent. Depression following alcohol detoxification significantly increases the risk of relapse. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of psilocybin‐assisted

HPLC–UV assay for the evaluation of inhibitors of plasma amine oxidase using crude bovine plasma

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
Recently, we have described a method for evaluation of plasma amine oxidase (PAO) inhibitors, which monitors the formation of 6-(5-phenyl-2H-tetrazol-2-yl)hexanal from the corresponding amine substrate by HPLC with UV-detection using purified bovine PAO.

Leflunomide, a Reversible Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitor

Central Nervous System Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 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 inhibits human MAO-A and MAO-B and exhibits IC₅₀ values of 19.1 μM and 13.7 μM, respectively.

Serotonin Degradation and Lipid Metabolism Regulate Human Tc2 Cell Effector Functions

Allergy, EarlyView.
Human Tc2 cells exhibit a metabolically active phenotype characterized by enhanced glycolysis, mitochondrial respiration, and fatty acid uptake dependent on PPARγ. Alarmins strongly amplify IL‐5 and IL‐13 production in Tc2 cells, supporting a shared immunometabolic program across type 2 lymphocytes.

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Targeting MAO-B with Small-Molecule Inhibitors: A Decade of Advances in Anticancer Research (2012–2024)

Molecules
Monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) is a key enzyme in the mitochondrial outer membrane, pivotal for the oxidative deamination of biogenic amines. Its overexpression has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several cancers, including glioblastoma and ...
