Newer MAO inhibitor drugs, including selegiline (Eldepryl) and rasagiline (Azilect), target MAO-B and are called selective MAO inhibitors. Selegiline is
The efficacy of the inhibitor binding into the unique substrate binding sites of MAO-A and MAO-B ultimately determines a drug s relative selectivity at inhibiting MAO-A, MAO-B, or both. The substrate binding sites of both MAO-A and MAO-B are mainly hydrophobic except for a conserved lysine that interacts with a water molecule.

The human brain contains more MAO-B than MAO Their dependence on hepatic metabolism predisposes MAO inhibitors to potential drug interactions with other drugs
Newer MAO inhibitor drugs, including selegiline (Eldepryl) and rasagiline (Azilect), target MAO-B and are called selective MAO inhibitors. Selegiline is
A drug that prevents the activity of the enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO). MAO inhibitors include phenelzine, isocarboxazid, and tranylcypromine. These drugs

The substrate binding sites of both MAO-A and MAO-B are mainly hydrophobic except for a conserved lysine that interacts with a water molecule.
The monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes include MAO-A and MAO-B. The catecholamines are metabolized by both MAO-A and MAO-B, whereas 5-HT is metabolized only by MAO-A. The four irreversible MAOIs marketed in the United States include the nonselective MAOIs phenelzine and tranylcypromine and the MAO-B selective drugs selegiline and isocarboxazid ((2)).
Examples of Drugs 1.Non-selective MAO inhibitors Inhibit both MAO-A and MAO-B. Phenelzine (Nardil) Isocarboxazid (Marplan) Tranylcypromine

why does our press believe the PRC (peoples republic of china) and chairman mao while thinking the whitehouse is lying? has chairman mao ever told us the truth?
Haven't even read it and am laughing.
Hey, how about Bewitched or a really freaky My Three Sons before the summer is over. L MAO .
