Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) inhibit the degradation of monoamine neurotransmitters (noradrenaline, serotonin, and dopamine) in the synaptic cleft, thereby increasing the amount available to membrane receptors. There are two types of MAOIs, referred to as MAOI-A and MAOI-B. Each type is ...
A Monoamine Oxidase B Inhibitor is a type of drug that works by blocking the enzyme MAO-B in the brain, which is involved in the degradation of dopamine. These inhibitors are used in the treatment of Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease. ...
This review deals with the new generation of selective and partly reversible monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. In contrast to the non selective inhibitors, used in the year 1957-1970, the selective inhibitors bind to and block only one of the two isoenzymes, MAO-A or MAO-B. The MAO-A ...

Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) were among the first licensed pharmacological treatments for patients with depression but over time have fallen out of mainstream clinical use. This has led to a loss of clinician training opportunities and reduced availability of MAOIs for prescribing. This ...
