Bioactivity | MAO-IN-M30 dihydrochloride is an orally active, brain-permeable, and brain selective irreversible MAO-A (IC50=37 nM) and MAO-B (IC50=57 nM) inhibitor. MAO-IN-M30 dihydrochloride is a potent iron chelator and radical scavenger. MAO-IN-M30 dihydrochloride has a neuroprotective effect against Dexamethasone-induced brain cell apoptosis. MAO-IN-M30 dihydrochloride also exhibits neurorestorative activity in post MPTP and lactacystin models of Parkinson's disease[1][2][3]. |
Invitro | MAO-IN-M30 (0.25 nM; 72 hours) significantly increased cell viability to ~90% after exposure to Dexamethasone[3].MAO-IN-M30 (0-10 μM; 24 hours) enhances PC12 cell survival[4].MAO-IN-M30 treatment significantly decreases the occurrence of fragmented DNA compared to the dexamethasone-treated group in SH-SY5Y cells[3].
