5-(2-Aminopropyl)indole (5-IT): a psychoactive substance used for recreational purposes is an inhibitor of human monoamine oxidase (MAO).

Drug Test. Anal. 6(7-8) , 607-13, (2014)

5-(2-Aminopropyl)indole (5-IT) is a psychoactive compound that has recently been associated with several fatal and non-fatal intoxications in a number of European countries. There are indications that acute effects may include symptoms of monoaminergic (e.g. ...

Comparison of Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors in Decreasing Production of the Autotoxic Dopamine Metabolite 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde in PC12 Cells.

J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 356 , 483-92, (2016)

According to the catecholaldehyde hypothesis, the toxic dopamine metabolite 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (DOPAL) contributes to the loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease. Monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) catalyzes the conversion of i...

A double-blind comparison of moclobemide and toloxatone in out-patients presenting a major depressive disorder.

Psychopharmacology 106 Suppl , S118-9, (1992)

A double-blind comparison of moclobemide and toloxatone was performed in adult out-patients diagnosed as suffering from a major depressive disorder. Parallel groups of patients received moclobemide, 450 mg/day (n = 135) or toloxatone, 1000 mg/day (n = 133) fo...

Minor and clinically non-significant interaction between toloxatone and amitriptyline.

Eur. J. Clin. Pharmacol. 44(1) , 97-9, (1993)

The possibility of a pharmacokinetic interaction between amitriptyline and toloxatone (a new MAOI-A) has been studied in 17 depressed in-patients. Amitriptyline and its demethylated and hydroxylated metabolites in blood and urine were measured at steady state...

Effect of acute ethanol administration on toloxatone pharmacokinetics in rabbits.

Alcohol. Clin. Exp. Res. 23(5) , 885-90, (1999)

The pharmacokinetics of toloxatone and ethanol were determined in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of conscious rabbits. According to a cross-over design, rabbits (n = 5) randomly received on three separate occasions either toloxatone (5 mg/kg), ethanol (1 g/kg...

The deamination of noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine by rat brain and heart monoamine oxidase and their inhibition by cimoxatone, toloxatone and MD 770222.

Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch. Pharmacol. 323(4) , 315-20, (1983)

In both rat brain and heart, noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine are metabolised predominantly by monoamine oxidase-A. The Km values for 14C-noradrenaline in the rat brain and heart are 290 microM and 300 microM, respectively, whereas for 14C-5-hydroxytrypt...

[Comparison of the new MAO-A inhibitors moclobemide, brofaromine and toloxatone with tranylcypromine in an animal experiment: significance for clinical practice].

Psychiatr. Prax. 16 Suppl 1 , 18-24, (1989)

The rat studies presented in this manuscript show that the new non-hydrazine compounds moclobemide, brofaromine and toloxatone have a profile typical of monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) inhibitors. These inhibitors are short-acting (16-24 h), reversible, non-hepat...

Debrisoquine and dextromethorphan phenotyping and antidepressant treatment.

Therapie. 46(1) , 1-3, (1991)

The correlation between debrisoquine and dextromethorphan oxidation polymorphism was studied in 16 depressed in-patients. There was a close correlation between both phenotypes (r = 0.81 p less than 0.0017). During a treatment with amitriptyline during two wee...

Toloxatone pharmacokinetics in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of the rabbit.

J. Pharm. Pharmacol. 44(2) , 124-6, (1992)

The pharmacokinetics of toloxatone (5 and 10 mg kg-1, i.v.) was studied in anaesthetized rabbits. There was a biexponential decline in plasma concentration with time. No differences were observed in the pharmacokinetic parameters with the increase of the dose...

[Acute toloxatone poisoning. Apropos of 122 cases].

Therapie. 45(2) , 139-44, (1990)

Toloxatone is a new monoamine oxidase inhibitor. One hundred and twenty two cases of poisoning with this drug are reported. In this series, the minimal toxic dose was 2 g. The first symptoms appeared about one hour after ingestion. In most cases, only drowsin...
