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

Increased expression and catalytic activity of prostacyclin synthase after simvastatin application to human umbilical vein endothelial cells [PDF]
In addition to lowering blood cholesterol levels, statins are known to exert antiplatelet effects. One of the key factors contributing to the antiplatelet effects of statins includes the upregulation of prostacyclin (PGI2) level.

Fluorinated tranylcypromine analogues as inhibitors of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1, KDM1A) [PDF]
We report a series of tranylcypromine analogues containing a fluorine in the cyclopropyl ring. A number of compounds with additional m- or p- substitution of the aryl ring were micromolar inhibitors of the LSD1 enzyme.

Multitarget Drugs: an Epigenetic Epiphany [PDF]
Epigenetics refers to changes in a biological phenotype that are not due to an underlying change in genotype. In eukaryotes, epigenetics involves a set of chemical modifications of the DNA and the histone proteins in nucleosomes.
