1. Which is the best way of using nitrous oxide for treatment and research in neuropsychiatry?
Objective: Whether for spiritual, recreational, or potential therapeutic use, interest in ayahuasca has grown remarkably. Ayahuasca’s main active substances are N,N‐dimethyltryptamine and certain monoamine oxidase inhibitor β-carbolines. Possible drug interactions are a major concern, and research is lacking in this area. The objective of this study wa

4. Effect of monoamine oxidase B A644G variant on nicotine dependence and/or schizophrenia risk
Abstract Objectives Schizophrenia (Sch) is a severe and chronic mental illness. Smoking prevalence is higher in patients with Sch than general population. We aimed to investigate the effects of MAOB gene A644G variant on nicotine dependence (ND) and Sch+ND risk in Turkish population and to evaluate by bioinformatic analysis. Methods Present study include

5. Pre-clinical interaction of ayahuasca, a brew used in spiritual movements, with morphine and propofol
ABSTRACT Ayahuasca is a beverage with psychoactive properties used in religious and ceremonial rituals by some religious groups. The main active components of ayahuasca are dimethyltryptamine and the harmala alkaloids with β-carboline structure acting as monoamine oxidase A inhibitors. This combination produces a pronounced activation of serotonergic pathwa

6. The putative catalytic role of higher serotonin bioavailability in the clinical response to exposure and response prevention in obsessive-compulsive disorder
Objective: Exposure and response prevention (ERP) is effective to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), but the lack of tolerance to the aversion nature of exposure techniques results in a high drop-out rate. There have been reports of a generic stress endurance effect of serotonin (5-HT) in the central nervous system (CNS) which might be explained by

7. Combined structure- and ligand-based virtual screening to evaluate caulerpin analogs with potential inhibitory activity against monoamine oxidase B
Abstract Natural marine products can help increase the quality of life in patients with neurological diseases. A large number of marine products act against Alzheimer's disease through varying pathways. According to structure- and ligand-based analyses, caulerpin, an alkaloid primarily isolated from the genus Caulerpa, possesses activity against monoamine ox

8. The catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitory potential of Z-vallesiachotamine by in silicoand in vitro approaches
AbstractZ-Vallesiachotamine is a monoterpene indole alkaloid that has a β-N-acrylate group in its structure. This class of compounds has already been described in different Psychotriaspecies. Our research group observed that E/Z-vallesiachotamine exhibits a multifunctional feature, being able to inhibit targets related to neurodegeneration, such as monoamin

9. Fármacos multifuncionais: monoamina oxidase e α-sinucleína como alvos terapêuticos na doença de Parkinson
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated to selective degeneration of dopaminergic neurons caused by an intricate relationship among dopamine metabolism, oxidative stress and α-synuclein fibrillation. Most therapies for PD have focused on dopamine replacement through the use of both monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) and dopamin

10. Evaluation of the neurotoxic effects of ayahuasca tea / Avaliação dos efeitos neurotóxicos do chá ayahuasca
Ayahuasca tea is a psychotropic beverage that has caused controversy due to the fact of being used indiscriminately by some group of people and the ease of purchase in the worldweb. The tea is derived by boiling the bark of the liana Banisteriopsis Caapi (B. Caapi) together with the leaves of Psychotria Viridis (P.Viridis). B. Caapi contains alkaloids as har

11. AVALIAÇÃO DO POTENCIAL EFEITO ANTIDEPRESSIVO DO 2-BFI, LIGANTE IMIDAZOLÍNICO I2, EM CAMUNDONGOS. / EVALUATION OF THE POTENTIAL ANTIDEPRESSANT-LIKE EFFECT OF IMIDAZOLINE I2 2-BFI IN MICE.
A depressão é uma doença psiquiátrica complexa, crônica e incapacitante, que acarreta um alto custo social. Dentre as diversas classes de antidepressivos encontram-se os inibidores da monoamina oxidase-A (MAO-A), que reduzem o metabolismo das monoaminas. Um sítio importante para a regulação da MAO-A é o sítio imidazolínico I2. Recentemente, foi de

12. Correlation between total nitrite/nitrate concentrations and monoamine oxidase (types A and B) and semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase enzymatic activities in human mesenteric arteries from non-diabetic and type 2 diabetic patients
The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between total nitrite/nitrate concentrations (NOx) and the kinetic parameters of monoamine oxidase enzymes (MAO-A and MAO-B) and semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) in human mesenteric arteries. Arteries were from non-diabetic and type 2 diabetic patients with sigmoid or rectum carcinoma for who
