SU-11739 (other developmental code names AGN-1133, J-508; also known as N-methyl-N-propargyl-1-aminoindane) [1] is an experimental monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) that was never marketed. [2] [3] [4] [5]

It is a dual or non-selective irreversible monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor, with preference for inhibition of MAO-B over MAO-A. [3] [4] It is less selective for MAO-B inhibition than AGN-1135 (racemic rasagiline) or rasagiline. [3] In addition to its MAOI activity, SU-11739 has been reported to have strong activity as a catecholamine releasing agent. [6] Similarly to rasagiline, but unlike selegiline and desmethylselegiline, SU-11739 is not a monoaminergic activity enhancer (MAE). [5]

The drug is the racemic N-methylated analogue of rasagiline. [2] [3] [4] It is also a ring-cyclized analogue of pargyline with about 20 times the MAOI potency of pargyline. [7]

SU-11739 was discovered before rasagiline and was patented in 1965. [8]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Monoamine oxidase inhibitor</span> Type of medication

Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are a class of drugs that inhibit the activity of one or both monoamine oxidase enzymes: monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B). They are best known as effective antidepressants, especially for treatment-resistant depression and atypical depression. They are also used to treat panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, Parkinson's disease, and several other disorders.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Tyramine</span> Chemical compound

Tyramine, also known under several other names, is a naturally occurring trace amine derived from the amino acid tyrosine. Tyramine acts as a catecholamine releasing agent. Notably, it is unable to cross the blood-brain barrier, resulting in only non-psychoactive peripheral sympathomimetic effects following ingestion. A hypertensive crisis can result, however, from ingestion of tyramine-rich foods in conjunction with the use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs).

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Selegiline</span> Monoamine oxidase inhibitor

Selegiline, also known as L-deprenyl and sold under the brand names Eldepryl, Zelapar, and Emsam among others, is a medication which is used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and major depressive disorder. It has also been studied for a variety of other indications, but has not been formally approved for any other use. The medication in the form licensed for depression has modest effectiveness for this condition that is similar to that of other antidepressants. Selegiline is provided as a swallowed tablet or capsule or an orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) for Parkinson's disease and as a patch applied to skin for depression.

Deprenyl, also known by its developmental code name E-250 and as N-propargylmethamphetamine, is the racemic mixture of D-deprenyl and L-deprenyl (selegiline). It was discovered in 1961 in Hungary at Chinoin Pharmaceutical Company by Zoltan Ecseri and József Knoll, was patented in 1962, and was first described in the literature in 1964 or 1965.

Levoamphetamine is a stimulant medication which is used in the treatment of certain medical conditions.

The drug is known to increase wakefulness and concentration in association with decreased appetite and fatigue. Pharmaceuticals that contain levoamphetamine are currently indicated and prescribed for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obesity, and narcolepsy in some countries. Levoamphetamine is taken by mouth.

Pheniprazine, formerly sold under the brand names Catron and Cavodil, is an irreversible and non-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) of the hydrazine group that was used as an antidepressant to treat depression in the 1960s. It was also used in the treatment of angina pectoris and schizophrenia. Pheniprazine has been largely discontinued due to toxicity concerns such as jaundice, amblyopia, and optic neuritis.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Monoaminergic activity enhancer</span> Class of compounds in the nervous system

Monoaminergic activity enhancers (MAE), also known as catecholaminergic/serotonergic activity enhancers (CAE/SAE), are a class of compounds that enhance the action potential-evoked release of monoamine neurotransmitters in the nervous system. MAEs are distinct from monoamine releasing agents (MRAs) like amphetamine and fenfluramine in that they do not induce the release of monoamines from synaptic vesicles but rather potentiate only nerve impulse propagation-mediated monoamine release. That is, MAEs increase the amounts of monoamine neurotransmitters released by neurons per electrical impulse.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">(R)-1-Aminoindan</span> Major metabolite of rasagiline

(R)-1-Aminoindan ((R)-1-AI; developmental code name TVP-136 or TV-136), or (R)-1-aminoindane, is the major metabolite of the selective MAO-B inhibitor and antiparkinsonian agent rasagiline ((R)-N-propargyl-1-aminoindan). In contrast to rasagiline, it lacks significant monoamine oxidase inhibition. In addition, unlike selegiline and its amphetamine metabolites, it lacks monoamine reuptake-inhibiting and -releasing activities and associated amphetamine-like psychostimulant effects. However, (R)-1-aminoindan retains neuroprotective effects and certain other activities.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">1-Aminoindane</span> Chemical compound

1-Aminoindane (1-AI), also known as 1-aminoindan, 1-indanylamine, or 1-indanamine, is an aminoindane. It is a positional isomer of 2-aminoindane. A variety of notable derivatives of 1- and 2-aminoindane are known. The (R)-enantiomer of 1-aminoindan, (R)-1-aminoindan, is pharmacologically active and is an active metabolite of the antiparkinsonian agent rasagiline.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">AGN-1135</span> A monoamine oxidase inhibitor and the racemic form of rasagiline

AGN-1135 is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) that was never marketed. It is the racemic form of rasagiline and is a mixture of the R(+)-enantiomer and S(–)-enantiomer (TVP-1022). Like rasagiline, AGN-1135 is a selective monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor. Virtually all of the MAOI activity of AGN-1135 lies in rasagiline, which is several orders of magnitude more potent as an MAO-B inhibitor than the S(–)-enantiomer. In relation to this, enantiopure rasagiline was developed and marketed for use as a pharmaceutical drug rather than AGP-1135.
