Inhibition of monoamine oxidase by pirlindole analogues: 3D-QSAR analysis.

A series of pirlindole analogues were tested as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase A and B. Although we did not find strict dependence between 3D-size of molecules and their inhibitory potency, rigid analogues exhibited potent and selective inhibition of MAO-A. They have 3D size limits of 13 angstroms (length) x 7 angstroms (height) x 4.4 angstroms (widths). Besides MAO-A inhibition flexible analogues also demonstrated potent inhibition of MAO-B. Five compounds were studied as inhibitors of purified human liver MAO-A. Their inhibitory potencies coincided with those obtained using rat liver mitochondrial MAO-A. Each compound induced changes in the spectrum of MAO-A but these did not correlate with the flexibility of the derivative. It is also possible that the oxygen bridge introduced with the flexibility might influence spectral patterns.
