Iodine-PEG as a unique combination for the metal-free synthesis of flavonoids through iodonium-triiodide ion-pair complexation. RSC Adv 2024; 14:6225-6233. [PMID: 38375003 PMCID: PMC10875328 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra08810c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024] Open
Abstract
An efficient metal-free single-step protocol has been developed for the direct synthesis of flavones from 2-hydroxyacetophenone and substituted benzaldehydes. This chemical transformation is exclusively promoted by the iodonium-triiodide ion couple formed through iodine and PEG-400 complexation. The triiodide anion not only helps in the abstraction of a proton from the acetophenone but also promotes the cyclization of intermediate chalcone to the corresponding flavones. The flavones were obtained in very high yields without using any toxic metal catalysts or harsh reaction conditions. The reaction mechanism was established through a series of test reactions and entrapping of reaction intermediates. The developed protocol provides direct access to flavones in high yields under milder reaction conditions with great substrate compatibility, including hydroxylated derivatives.

Abstract
Hormone-related breast cancer is mostly caused by interactions with estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α), which functions as a transcription factor to control the transcription of numerous genes. Flavones are considered a good substrate for the estrogen receptor. Substitution of the N-heterocyclic ring on the flavon structure may potentiate its anticancer effect. A series of flavon derivatives with an N-heteroaryl ring at the 4' position of the B ring of flavon were designed, prepared and evaluated for in vitro breast cancer activity. Binding interactions of the PzFL, PzF, PiFL, PiF and IFL compounds with ER-α were studied by molecular docking. Molecular dynamics simulation studies were carried out in order to determine the stability and convergence of protein-ligand complexes. The compounds were produced by cyclizing chalcones and chalcones were produced by Claisen-Schmidt condensation of substituted aldehydes and 2-hydroxy acetophenone. Breast cancer activity was evaluated by the MTT assay on MCF-7 cell lines. Also, compounds were studied for their estrogen receptor binding potential on the same cell lines. Molecular docking of compounds showed a good docking score. The molecular dynamics of these compounds expressed stable root mean square deviation, stable radius of gyration and low binding energy, suggesting that ligand bound to protein is quite stable in the complex. MTT assay on MCF-7 cell lines reported PzF and IFL were the most active compounds with lower IC50 values. ER-α binding assay of these compounds revealed the presence of binding interactions with receptors. This study offers a viable reference point for the design of flavon-incorporated N-heterocyclic ring derivatives as breast cancer compounds.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidase is a flavin enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain. Various toxic by-products, aldehydes and hydrogen peroxide produced during the catalytic process, can cause oxidative stress and neuronal cell death. Overexpression of MAO-B and insufficient dopamine concentration are recognized as pathological factors in neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) including Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Therefore, the inhibition of MAO-B is an attractive target for the treatment of NDs. Despite significant efforts, few selective and reversible MAO-B inhibitors have been clinically approved. Natural products have emerged as valuable sources of lead compounds in drug discovery. Compounds such as chromone, coumarin, chalcone, caffeine, and aurone, present in natural structures, are considered as privileged scaffolds in the synthesis of MAO-B inhibitors. In this review, we summarized the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of MAO-B inhibitors based on the naturally privileged scaffolds over the past 20 years. Additionally, we proposed a balanced discussion on the advantages and limitations of natural scaffold-based MAO-B inhibitors with providing a future perspective in drug development.

Front Nutr 2023; 10:1185236. [PMID: 37324729 PMCID: PMC10266967 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1185236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023] Open
Abstract
To valorise the bioactive constituents abundant in leaves and other parts of medicinal plants with the objective to minimize the plant-based wastes, this study was undertaken. The main bioactive constituent of Andrographis paniculata, an Asian medicinal plant, is andrographolide (AG, a diterpenoid), which has shown promising results in the treatment of neurodegenerative illnesses. Continuous electrical activity in the brain is a hallmark of the abnormal neurological conditions such as epilepsy (EY). This can lead to neurological sequelae. In this study, we used GSE28674 as a microarray expression profiling dataset to identify DEGs associated with andrographolide and those with fold changes >1 and p-value <0.05 GEO2R. We obtained eight DEG datasets (two up and six down). There was marked enrichment under various Kyoto Encyclopaedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) terms for these DEGs (DUSP10, FN1, AR, PRKCE, CA12, RBP4, GABRG2, and GABRA2). Synaptic vesicles and plasma membranes were the predominant sites of DEG expression. AG acts as an antiepileptic agent by upregulating GABA levels. The low bioavailability of AG is a significant limitation of its application. To control these limitations, andrographolide nanoparticles (AGNPs) were prepared and their neuroprotective effect against pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced kindling epilepsy was investigated using network pharmacology (NP) and docking studies to evaluate the antiepileptic multi-target mechanisms of AG. Andrographolide is associated with eight targets in the treatment of epilepsy. Nicotine addiction, GABAergic synapse, and morphine addiction were mainly related to epilepsy, according to KEGG pathway enrichment analysis (p < 0.05). A docking study showed that andrographolide interacted with the key targets. AG regulates epilepsy and exerts its therapeutic effects by stimulating GABA production. Rats received 80 mg/kg body weight of AG and AGNP, phenytoin and PTZ (30 mg/kg i.p. injection on alternate days), brain MDA, SOD, GSH, GABAand histological changes of hippocampus and cortex were observed. PTZ injected rats showed significantly (***p < 0.001) increased kindling behavior, increased MDA, decreased GSH, SOD, GABA activities, compared with normal rats, while treatment AGNPs significantly reduced kindling score and reversed oxidative damage. Finally, we conclude that the leaves and roots of A. Paniculata can be effectively utilized for its major bioactive constituent, andrographolide as a potent anti-epileptic agent. Furthermore, the findings of novel nanotherapeutic approach claim that nano-andrographolide can be successfully in the management of kindling seizures and neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
SARS-COV-2, the novel coronavirus and root of global pandemic COVID-19 caused a severe health threat throughout the world. Lack of specific treatments raised an effort to find potential inhibitors for the viral proteins. The recently invented crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) and its key role in viral replication; non-resemblance to any human protease makes it a perfect target for inhibitor research. This article reports a computer-aided drug design (CADD) approach for the screening of 118 compounds with 16 distinct heterocyclic moieties in comparison with 5 natural products and 7 repurposed drugs. Molecular docking analysis against Mpro protein were performed finding isatin linked with a oxidiazoles (A2 and A4) derivatives to have the best docking scores of -11.22 kcal/mol and -11.15 kcal/mol respectively. Structure-activity relationship studies showed a good comparison with a known active Mpro inhibitor and repurposed drug ebselen with an IC50 value of -0.67 μM. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations for 50 ns were performed for A2 and A4 supporting the stability of the two compounds within the binding pocket, largely at the S1, S2 and S4 domains with high binding energy suggesting their suitability as potential inhibitors of Mpro for SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Structural derivatization of natural products has been a continuing and irreplaceable source of novel drug leads. Natural phenols are a broad category of natural products with wide pharmacological activity and have offered plenty of clinical drugs. However, the structural complexity and wide variety of natural phenols leads to the difficulty of structural derivatization. Skeleton analysis indicated most types of natural phenols can be structured by the combination and extension of three common fragments containing phenol, phenylpropanoid and benzoyl. Based on these fragments, the derivatization strategies of natural phenols were unified and comprehensively analyzed in this review. In addition to classical methods, advanced strategies with high selectivity, efficiency and practicality were emphasized. Total synthesis strategies of typical fragments such as stilbenes, chalcones and flavonoids were also covered and analyzed as the supplementary for supporting the diversity-oriented derivatization of natural phenols.

Abstract
In the search for inhibitors of COVID-19, we have targeted the interaction between the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor and the spike receptor binding domain (S1-RBD) of SARS-CoV-2. Virtual screening of a library of natural compounds identified Kobophenol A as a potential inhibitor. Kobophenol A was then found to block the interaction between the ACE2 receptor and S1-RBD in vitro with an IC50 of 1.81 ± 0.04 μM and inhibit SARS-CoV-2 viral infection in cells with an EC50 of 71.6 μM. Blind docking calculations identified two potential binding sites, and molecular dynamics simulations predicted binding free energies of -19.0 ± 4.3 and -24.9 ± 6.9 kcal/mol for Kobophenol A to the spike/ACE2 interface and the ACE2 hydrophobic pocket, respectively. In summary, Kobophenol A, identified through docking studies, is the first compound that inhibits SARS-CoV-2 binding to cells through blocking S1-RBD to the host ACE2 receptor and thus may serve as a good lead compound against COVID-19.

[PMID: 31965939 DOI: 10.2174/0929867327666200121165931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2019] [Revised: 11/07/2019] [Accepted: 11/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
A large plethora of drugs and promising lead compounds contain halogens in their structures. The introduction of such moieties strongly modulates their physical-chemical features as well as pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile. The most important outcome was shown to be the ability of these halogens to favourably influence the drug-target interaction and energetic stability within the active site by the establishment of halogen bonds. This review attempted to demonstrate the key role exerted by these versatile moieties when correctly located in an organic scaffold to display Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) inhibition and selectivity towards the B isoform of this important enzyme. Human MAOs are well-recognized as therapeutic targets for mood disorders and neurodegenerative diseases and medicinal chemists were prompted to discover the structural requirements crucial to discriminate the slight differences between the active sits of the two isoforms (MAO-A and MAOB). The analysis of the structure-activity relationships of the most important scaffolds (hydrazothiazoles, coumarins, chromones, chalcones, pyrazolines) and the impact of halogen (F, Cl, Br and I) insertion on this biological activity and isozyme selectivity have been reported being a source of inspiration for the medicinal chemists.

Abstract
An efficient method for the synthesis of a new class of α-aminophosphonates of imatinib derivative has been developed in one-pot Kabachnik-Fields reaction of N-(5-amino-2-methyl phenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine with various aldehydes and diethyl phosphite under microwave irradiation and neat conditions using NiO nanoparticles as an reusable and heterogeneous catalyst, with 96% yield at 450 W within 15 min. All the compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity with various cancer cell lines by MTT assay method. Compounds with halo (4f, -4Br, IC50 = 1.068 ± 0.88 µM to 2.033 ± 0.97 µM), nitro substitution (4 h, -3NO2, IC50 = 1.380 ± 0.94 µM to 2.213 ± 0.64 µM), (4 g, -4NO2, IC50 = 1.402 ± 0.79 µM to 2.335 ± 0.73 µM) and (4i, 4-Cl, 3-NO2, IC50 = 1.437 ± 0.92 µM to 2.558 ± 0.76 µM) were showed better anticancer activity when compared with standard drugs Doxorubicin and Imatinib using MTT assay method. Further in silico target hunting reveals the anticancer activity of the designed compounds by inhibiting human ABL tyrosine kinase and all the designed compounds have shown significant drug-like characteristics.

Calycosin and 8-O-methylretusin isolated from Maackia amurensis as potent and selective reversible inhibitors of human monoamine oxidase-B. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 151:441-448.

Abstract
Nineteen compounds were isolated from the stems of Maackia amurensis by activity-guided screening for new human monoamine oxidase-B (hMAO-B) inhibitors. Among the compounds isolated, flavonoids calycosin (5) and 8-O-methylretusin (6) were found to potently and selectively inhibit hMAO-B (IC50 = 0.24 and 0.23 μM, respectively) but not hMAO-A with high selectivity index (SI) values (SI = 293.8 and 81.3, respectively). In addition, 5 and 6 reversibly and competitively inhibited hMAO-B with Ki values of 0.057 and 0.054 μM, respectively. A pterocarpan (-)-medicarpin (18) was also observed to strongly inhibit hMAO-B (IC50 = 0.30 μM). Most of the compounds weakly inhibited AChE, except isolupalbigenin (13) (IC50 = 20.6 μM), which suggested 13 be considered a potential dual function inhibitor of MAO-B and AChE. Molecular docking simulation revealed that the binding affinities of 5 and 6 for hMAO-B (both -9.3 kcal/mol) were higher than those for hMAO-A (-7.4 and -7.2 kcal/mol, respectively). Compound 5 was found to interact by hydrogen bonding with hMAO-B at Cys172 residue (distance: 3.250 Å); no hydrogen bonding was predicted between 5 and hMAO-A. These findings suggest that compounds 5 and 6 be considered novel potent, selective, and reversible hMAO-B inhibitors and candidates for the treatment of neurological disorders.

Abstract
Introduction: Selective monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) inhibitors are currently used as coadjuvants for the treatment of early motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease. They can, based on their chemical structure and mechanism of inhibition, be categorized into reversible and irreversible agents. Areas covered: This review provides a comprehensive update on the development state of selective MAO-B inhibitors describing the results, structures, structure-activity relationships (SARs) and Medicinal chemistry strategies as well as the related shortcomings over the past five years. Expert opinion: Researchers have explored and implemented new and old chemical scaffolds achieving high inhibitory potencies and isoform selectivity. Most of them were characterized and proposed as multitarget agents able to act at different levels (including AChE inhibition, H3R or A2AR antagonism, antioxidant and chelating properties, Aβ1-42 aggregation reduction) in the network of aetiologies of neurodegenerative disorders. These results can also be used to avoid 'cheese-reaction' effects and the occurrence of serotonergic syndrome in patients.

Abstract
Designed and synthesized novel homopiperazine linked imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives (10a-i, 11a-g, 12), and evaluated them for their in vitro cytotoxicity against HeLa cells (cervical cancer), A549 cells (lung cancer) cells, by MTT assay. Compound 12 (IC50 = 4.14 µM) and compound 10c (IC50 = 5.98 µM) were found to be 2.5 fold, and 1.74 fold more potent when compared with standard Etoposide (IC50 = 10.44 µM), against A549 (lung cancer cells). Compound 12 also found to be 1.57 and 1.13 fold potent against DU145 (IC50 = 6.24 µM) and HeLa (IC50 = 6.54 µM), respectively when compared with Etoposide (DU145, IC50 = 9.8 µM; HeLa, IC50 = 7.43 µM). Compound 10f (IC50 = 6.12 µM) was found to be 1.31 fold more potent than Etoposide (IC50 = 7.43 µM) against HeLa cell lines. Moreover compounds 10a and 11a showed cytotoxicity at low micro-molar concentrations against A549 cells. Synthesized compounds were also evaluated for their antimicrobial activity by Cup plate diffusion method. Compounds 10c, 11b, 11d and 11f displayed remarkable antimicrobial activity relating to their standard drugs Gentamycin, Amphotericin B and Ampicillin. Significantly, compound 10c showed broad spectrum activity against tested microbial strains. All the designed compounds were well occupied the binding site of the colchicine and interacted with both α- and β-tubuline interface (PDB ID: 3E22), which demonstrates that synthesized compounds are promising tubulin inhibitors. Also, the synthesized compounds occupied the catalytic triad and adenine-binding site, in the active site of β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase III enzyme (PDB ID: 1MZS). The molecular docking results provided the useful information for the future design of more potent inhibitors. These preliminary results convinced further investigation and modifications on synthesized compounds aiming towards the development of potential cytotoxic as well as antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors have made significant contributions and remain an indispensable approach of molecular and mechanistic diversity for the discovery of antineurodegenerative drugs. However, their usage has been hampered by nonselective and/or irreversible action which resulted in drawbacks like liver toxicity, cheese effect, and so forth. Hence, the search for selective MAO inhibitors (MAOIs) has become a substantial focus in current drug discovery. This review summarizes our current understanding on MAO-A/MAO-B including their structure, catalytic mechanism, and biological functions with emphases on the role of MAO-B as a potential therapeutic target for the development of medications treating neurodegenerative disorders. It also highlights the recent developments in the discovery of potential MAO-B inhibitors (MAO-BIs) belonging to diverse chemical scaffolds, arising from intensive chemical-mechanistic and computational studies documented during past 3 years (2015-2018), with emphases on their potency and selectivity. Importantly, readers will gain knowledge of various newly established MAO-BI scaffolds and their development potentials. The comprehensive information provided herein will hopefully accelerate ideas for designing novel selective MAO-BIs with superior activity profiles and critical discussions will inflict more caution in the decision-making process in the MAOIs discovery.

Abstract
Coumarins are the phytochemicals, which belong to the family of benzopyrone, that display interesting pharmacological properties. Several natural, synthetic and semisynthetic coumarin derivatives have been discovered in decades for their applicability as lead structures as drugs. Coumarin based conjugates have been described as potential AChE, BuChE, MAO and β-amyloid inhibitors. Therefore, the objective of this review is to focus on the construction of these pharmacologically important coumarin analogues with anti-Alzheimer’s activities, highlight their docking studies and structure–activity relationships based on their substitution pattern with respect to the selected positions on the chromen ring by emphasising on the research reports conducted in between year 1968 to 2017.![]()

Abstract
Three flavanones and two flavones were isolated from the leaves of Prunus padus var. seoulensis by the activity-guided screening for new monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. Among the compounds isolated, rhamnocitrin (5) was found to potently and selectively inhibit human MAO-A (hMAO-A, IC50 = 0.051 µM) and effectively inhibit hMAO-B (IC50 = 2.97 µM). The IC50 value of 5 for hMAO-A was the lowest amongst all natural flavonoids reported to date, and the potency was 20.2 times higher than that of toloxatone (1.03 µM), a marketed drug. In addition, 5 reversibly and competitively inhibited hMAO-A and hMAO-B with Ki values of 0.030 and 0.91 µM, respectively. Genkwanin (4) was also observed to strongly inhibit hMAO-A and hMAO-B (IC50 = 0.14 and 0.35 µM, respectively), and competitively inhibit hMAO-A and hMAO-B (Ki = 0.097 and 0.12 µM, respectively). Molecular docking simulation reveals that the binding affinity of 5 with hMAO-A (-18.49 kcal/mol) is higher than that observed with hMAO-B (0.19 kcal/mol). Compound 5 interacts with hMAO-A at four possible residues (Asn181, Gln215, Thr336, and Tyr444), while hMAO-B forms a single hydrogen bond at Glu84. These findings suggest that compound 5 as well as 4 can be considered as novel potent and reversible hMAO-A and/or hMAO-B inhibitors or useful lead compounds for future development of hMAO inhibitors in neurological disorder therapies.

Abstract
A highly regioselective and transition-metal free one-pot arylation of chromenones with arylboronic acids has been achieved employing K2S2O8. The procedure consists of a sequence of some reactions including an arylation/decarboxylation cascade and proceeds well in aqueous media to afford biologically interesting flavones and 3-arylcoumarins. This method exhibited excellent selectivity and functional group tolerance under mild conditions. The reaction also showed perfect efficacy for the preparation of styryl coumarins.

Abstract
Numerous studies have shown that chalcones are promising scaffolds for the development of new monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) inhibitors. As a continuation of our ongoing research into the development of reversible human MAO-B (hMAO-B) inhibitors, two series of twenty chalcones containing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents were synthesized. All compounds were found to be competitive, selective, and reversible inhibitors of hMAO-B except (2E)-1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (P7) and (2E)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (P17), which were found to be selective inhibitors of hMAO-A. The most potent hMAO-B inhibitor, (2E)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-ethylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (P16), showed a Ki value of 0.11±0.01 μm. Molecular docking simulations were carried out to identify the hypothetical binding mode for the most potent compounds in the active sites of hMAO-A and B. The ability of the compounds to cross the blood-brain barrier was assessed by parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA). Additionally, the most potent hMAO-B inhibitor P16 showed no toxicity in cultured hepatic cells at concentrations of 5 and 25 μm.

Abstract
A series of 11 indole-based chalcones (IC1-11) with various electron donating and withdrawing groups at the para position of the phenyl ring B were synthesized. All the compounds were tested for their human monoamine oxidase (hMAO)-A and hMAO-B inhibitory potencies. Most of the synthesized candidates proved to be potent and selective inhibitors of MAO-B rather than MAO-A, with a reversible and competitive mode. Among them, compound IC9 was found to be a potent inhibitor of hMAO-B with Ki = 0.01 ± 0.005 μM and a selectivity index of 120. It was found to be better than the standard drug, selegiline (hMAO-B with Ki = 0.20 ± 0.020 μM) with a selectivity index of 30.55. PAMPA assays were carried out for all the compounds in order to evaluate the capacity of the compounds to cross the blood-brain barrier. Moreover, the most potent MAO-B inhibitor, IC9, was nontoxic at 5 and 25 μM, with 95.20 and 69.17% viable cells, respectively. The lead compound IC9 has an antioxidant property of 1.18 Trolox equivalents by ABTS assay. Molecular modeling studies were performed against hMAO-B to observe binding site interactions of the lead compound.

Abstract
A series of (2E)-1-(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-3-(para-substituted phenyl)prop-2-en-1-ones (TB1-TB11) was synthesized and tested for inhibitory activity toward human monoamine oxidase (hMAO). All compounds were found to be competitive, selective, and reversible toward hMAO-B except (2E)-1-(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (TB7) and (2E)-1-(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (TB8), which were selective inhibitors of hMAO-A. The most potent compound, (2E)-1-(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-3-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]prop-2-en-1-one (TB5), showed the best inhibitory activity and higher selectivity toward hMAO-B, with Ki and SI values of 0.11±0.01 μm and 13.18, respectively. PAMPA assays for all compounds were carried out in order to evaluate the capacity of the compounds to cross the blood-brain barrier. Moreover, the most potent MAO-B inhibitor, TB5, was found to be nontoxic at 5 and 25 μm, with 95.75 and 84.59 % viability among cells, respectively. Molecular docking simulations were carried out to understand the crucial interactions responsible for selectivity and potency.

Abstract
A series of methoxylated chalcones with fluoro and trifluoromethyl derivatives were synthesized and investigated for their ability to inhibit human monoamine oxidase A and B. The chemical structures of the compounds have been characterized by means of their (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, Mass spectroscopic datas and elemental analysis. The results demonstrate that these compounds are reversible and selective MAO-B inhibitors with a competitive mode of inhibition. The most potent compound (2E)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl] prop-2-en-1-one showed the best activity and higher selectivity towards hMAO-B with Ki and SI values of 0.22±0.01μM and 0.05 comparable to that standard drug, Selegiline Ki and SI values were found as 0.33±0.03μM and 0.04, respectively. Molecular docking studies were carried out to further explain the in vitro results of the new compounds, and to identify the hypothetical binding mode for the compounds inside the inhibitor binding cavity of hMAO-B.
