Xi Jun He et al.
Neurotoxicology, 29(6), 1141-1146 (2008-07-09)
Neurotoxic effects of MPTP on the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system are thought to be initiated by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), a metabolite formed by the monoamine oxidase (MAO)-B-mediated oxidation of MPTP. We previously reported that the administration of MPTP induced apoptosis in migrating

The selective, reversible inhibitors of monoamine oxidase (MAO) moclobemide and Ro 41-1049 (selective for MAO-A), as well as of Ro 16-6491 and Ro 19-6327 (selective for MAO-B) inhibited the enzyme with an initial competitive phase, followed by a time-dependent inhibition

This study demonstrated the existence of specific binding sites for [3H]Ro 19-6327 in human platelet membranes. This compound is a novel, time-dependent inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) and is structurally closely related to [3H]Ro 16-6491. The density of

The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor complex appears to play an important role in processes of learning and memory. The presence of a glycine modulatory site at this complex has recently been established and suggests that glycinergic neurotransmission may influence these cognitive functions.

The inhibition of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in rat liver and brain by the short-acting MAO-A inhibitors moclobemide (Ro 11-1163 = p-chloro-N-[2-morpholinoethyl]benzamide) and brofaremine and by the short-acting MAO-B inhibitors Ro 16-6491 (N-[2-aminoethyl]-p-chloro-benzamide) and almoxatone, administered p.o. at roughly equieffective doses
