Bioactivity

Rasagiline (R-AGN1135) is a highly potent selective irreversible mitochondrial monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor with IC50s of 4.43 nM and 412 nM for rat brain MAO B and A activity, respectively[1].

Invitro

Rasagiline (0.25 nM; 96 hours) significantly increases the proliferation rates of SH-SY5Y and 1242-MG upon Dexamethasone (10 µM) treatment[2]. Cell Proliferation Assay[2] Cell Line:

In Vivo

Rasagiline is neuroprotective in a transgenic model of multiple system atrophy. Motor behavioural tests show improvements in motor deficits associated with 2.5 mg/kg Rasagiline therapy[3]. Animal Model:
