    • 8-Aryl- and alkyloxycaffeine analogues as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase 

      Strydom, Belinda; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2011)
      Recently it was reported that a series of 8-benzyloxycaffeine analogues are potent reversible inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. In an attempt to discover additional C8 oxy substituents of caffeine that ...
    • Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by 8-benzyloxycaffeine analogues 

      Strydom, Belinda; Malan, Sarel F.; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P.; Castagnoli, Neal (Elsevier, 2010)
      Based on recent reports that several (E)-8-styrylcaffeinyl analogues are potent reversible inhibitors of monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), a series of 8-benzyloxycaffeinyl analogues were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors ...
    • Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by 8-phenoxymethylcaffeine derivatives 

      Okaecwe, Thokozile; Swanepoel, Abraham J.; Petzer, Anél; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2012)
      A recent study has reported that a series of 8-benzyloxycaffeines are potent and reversible inhibitors of both human monoamine oxidase (MAO) isoforms, MAO-A and -B. In an attempt to discover additional caffeine derivatives ...
    • Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by C5-substituted phthalimide analogues 

      Manley-King, Clarina I.; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2011)
      Literature reports that isatin as well as C5- and C6-substituted isatin analogues are reversible inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. In general, C5- and C6-substitution of isatin leads to enhanced binding ...
    • Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by indole and benzofuran derivatives 

      Prins, Louis H.A.; Petzer, Jacobus P.; Malan, Sarel F. (Elsevier, 2010)
      Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an important drug target for the treatment of neurological disorders. A series of indole and benzofuran derivatives were synthesised and evaluated as inhibitors of the two MAO isoforms, MAO-A and ...
    • Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by selected C5- and C6-substituted isatin analogues 

      Manley-King, Clarina I.; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2011)
      Previous studies have shown that (E)-5-styrylisatin and (E)-6-styrylisatin are reversible inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. Both homologues are reported to exhibit selective binding to the MAO-B isoform ...
    • Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by selected C6-substituted chromone derivatives 

      Legoabe, Lesetja J.; Petzer, Anél; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2012)
      Chromone has been reported to be a useful scaffold for the design of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. In an attempt to discover highly potent MAO inhibitors and to contribute to the known structureeactivity relationships ...
    • Inhibition of  monoamine oxidase by 8-benzyloxycaffeine analogues 

      Strydom, Belinda; Malan, Sarel F.; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P.; Castagnoli, Neal (Elsevier, 2010)
      Based on recent reports that several (E)-8-styrylcaffeinyl analogues are potent reversible inhibitors of monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), a series of 8-benzyloxycaffeinyl analogues were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors ...
    • Monoamine oxidase inhibition by C4-substituted phthalonitriles 

      Manley-King, Clarina I.; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2012)
      It was recently reported that a series of C5-substituted phthalimides are remarkably potent reversible inhibitors of recombinant human monoamine oxidase (MAO) B. Modeling studies suggested that the phthalimide ring forms ...
    • Monoamine oxidase inhibition by selected anilide derivatives 

      Legoabe, Lesetja; Kruger, Johann; Petzer, Anél; Bergh, Jacobus J.; Petzer, Jacobus P. (Elsevier, 2011)
      A series of anilide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of recombinant human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. The most potent inhibitors among the derivatives that were initially evaluated were ...
