Two-Photon Fluorescent Probes for Amyloid-β Plaques Imaging In Vivo
Amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide deposition, hyperphosphorylated tau proteins, reactive astrocytes, high levels of metal ions, and upregulated monoamine oxidases are considered to be the primary pathological markers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

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

(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.

Molecular aspects of monoamine oxidase B [PDF]
Monoamine oxidases (MAO) influence the monoamine levels in brain by virtue of their role in neurotransmitter breakdown. MAO B is the predominant form in glial cells and in platelets.

Altered activities of monoamine oxidase a in omani autistic children – a brief report [PDF]
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a mysterious neurodevelpomental disorder with onset prior to 3 years of age. Monoamine oxidases (MAO) A and B are the enzymes expressed in brain and able to metabolize dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, and serotonin.

Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) as a Potential Target for Anticancer Drug Design and Development
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are oxidative enzymes that catalyze the conversion of biogenic amines into their corresponding aldehydes and ketones through oxidative deamination.

Benzo[b]tiophen-3-ol derivatives as effective inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase: design, synthesis, and biological activity [PDF]
A series of benzo[b]thiophen-3-ols were synthesised and investigated as potential human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) inhibitors in vitro as well as ex vivo in rat cortex synaptosomes by means of evaluation of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid/dopamine (DOPAC/DA)

Coumarin analogue 3-methyl-7H-furo[3,2-g] chromen-7-one as a possible antiparkinsonian agent
Introduction: Parkinson’s disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Monoamine oxidase B inhibitors are used in the treatment of this disease concomitantly with levodopa or as monotherapy.

Recent progress in directed evolution of stereoselective monoamine oxidases
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) use molecular dioxygen as oxidant to catalyze the oxidation of amines to imines. This type of enzyme can be employed for the synthesis of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines by an appropriate deracemization protocol ...
