Amphetamine and its derivatives exhibit a wide range of pharmacological activities, including psychostimulant, hallucinogenic, entactogenic, anorectic, or antidepressant effects. The mechanisms of action underlying these ...

A series of naphthylisopropylamine and N-benzyl-4-methylthioamphetamine derivatives were evaluated as monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Their potencies were compared with those of a series of amphetamine derivatives, to test ...

2-Arylthiomorpholine and 2-arylthiomorpholin-5-one derivatives, designed as rigid and/or non-basic phenylethylamine analogues, were evaluated as rat and human monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Molecular docking provided ...

The recent description of the crystal structures of rat MAO-A and human MAO-B provides an unprecedented framework to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the selective interactions between these proteins and their ligands. ...

Abstract—Four enantiomerically pure (S)-4-alkylthioamphetamine derivatives were evaluated as monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors using the human and rat isoforms of the enzyme. Molecular dockings were performed in order ...
