Benzo[b]tiophen-3-ol derivatives as effective inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase: design, synthesis, and biological activity
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)
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 ...
Synthesis and evaluation of chromone derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Springer, 2019)
Based on reports that chromone compounds are good potency inhibitors of monoamine oxidase (MAO), the present study evaluates the effect of substitution with flexible side chains on the 3 position on MAO inhibition potency. ...
Design, synthesis, docking studies and monoamine oxidase inhibition of a small library of 1-acetyl- and 1-thiocarbamoyl-3,5-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazoles
(MDPI, 2019)
New N-acetyl/N-thiocarbamoylpyrazoline derivatives were designed and synthesized
in high yields to assess their inhibitory activity and selectivity against human monoamine oxidase
A and B. The most important chiral ...
4-(3-Nitrophenyl)thiazol-2-ylhydrazone derivatives as antioxidants and selective hMAO-B inhibitors: synthesis, biological activity and computational analysis
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)
A new series of 4-(3-nitrophenyl)thiazol-2-ylhydrazone derivatives were designed, synthesised, and evaluated to assess their inhibitory effect on the human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) A and B isoforms. Different (un)substituted ...
Evaluation of selected natural compounds as dual inhibitors of catechol-o-methyltransferase and monoamine oxidase
(Bentham Science, 2019)
Background: The most effective symptomatic treatment of Parkinson’s disease remains the metabolic precursor of dopamine, L-dopa. To enhance the efficacy of L-dopa, it is often combined with inhibitors of the enzymes, ...
SAR and molecular mechanism studies of monoamine oxidase inhibition by selected chalcone analogs
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)
The present study describes the synthesis of a series of 22 chalcone analogs. These compounds were evaluated as potential human MAO-A and MAO-B inhibitors. The compounds showed varied selectivity against the two isoforms. ...
1,3,4-Oxadiazol-2-ylbenzenesulfonamides as privileged structures for the inhibition of monoamine oxidase B
(Elsevier, 2019)
The present study investigates the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition properties of a series of ten 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-ylbenzenesulfonamides. The target compounds were synthesized by dehydration of the corresponding ...
Monoamine oxidase inhibition by selected dye compounds
(Wiley, 2019)
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an important drug target as the MAO isoforms play key roles in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, as well as in neuropsychiatric diseases such as ...
Monoamine oxidase inhibition by Kavalactones from Kava (Piper Methysticum)
(Thieme, 2019)
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are key metabolic enzymes for neurotransmitter and dietary amines and are targets for the treatment of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. This study examined the MAO inhibition ...
Optimization of pyrrolo[3,4‐f]indole‐5,7‐dione and indole‐5,6‐dicarbonitrile derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Wiley, 2019)
In recent studies, we have investigated the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition properties of pyrrolo[3,4‐f]indole‐5,7‐dione and indole‐5,6‐dicarbonitrile derivatives. Since numerous high potency MAO inhibitors are present ...
