Inhibitor Comments
Differential inhibition of the A or B isozymes of MAO have different clinical outcomes. Inhibition of MAOA results in antidepressant activity [1], whereas inhibition of MAOB results in antiparkinsonian activity [13]. Important substrates for MAO activity in the CNS include dopamine, adrenaline, noradrenaline, serotonin (5-HT), and β-phenylethylamine.
Tranylcypromine is an irreversible MAO inhibitor with equal potency for the A and B isozymes [15].
