Indanones as high-potency reversible inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Wiley, 2015)
Recent reports document that α-tetralone (3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one) is an appropriate scaffold for the design of high-potency monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. Based on the structural similarity between α-tetralone ...
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. ...
Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of 2-heteroarylidene-1-tetralone derivatives as monoamine oxidase inhibitors
(Thieme, 2018)
The present study investigates the human monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition properties of a series of twelve 2-heteroarylidene-1-tetralone derivatives. Also included are related cyclohexylmethylidene, cyclopentylmethylidene ...
The evaluation of 1-tetralone and 4-chromanone derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Springer, 2020)
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is of much clinical relevance, and inhibitors of this enzyme are used in the treatment for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders such as depression and Parkinson’s disease. The present ...
The monoamine oxidase inhibition properties of C6-mono- and N3/C6-disubstituted derivatives of 4(3H)-quinazolinone
(Elsevier, 2019)
Parkinson’s disease is characterised by the death of the nigrostriatal neurons and depletion of striatal dopamine. The standard symptomatic therapy consists of dopamine replacement with l-dopa, the metabolic precursor of ...
Sulfanylphthalonitrile analogues as selective and potent inhibitors of monoamine oxidase B
(Elsevier, 2012)
It has recently been reported that nitrile containing compounds frequently act as potent monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitors. Modelling studies suggest that this high potency inhibition may rely, at least in part, on ...
Synthesis and evaluation of 2-substituted 4(3H)-quinazolinone thioether derivatives as monoamine oxidase inhibitors
(Elsevier, 2018)
In the present study, a series of fourteen 2-mercapto-4(3H)-quinazolinone derivatives was synthesised and evaluated as potential inhibitors of the human monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes. Quinazolinone is the oxidised form ...
MAO inhibitors and their wider applications: a patent review
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)
Introduction: Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, after the initial ‘golden age’, are currently used as third-line antidepressants (selective MAO-A inhibitors) or clinically enrolled as co-adjuvants for neurodegenerative ...
