Toloxatone is a reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitor (MAOI) and antidepressant.
Toloxatone is a reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitor (MAOI) and antidepressant. Toloxatone belongs to the aryloxazolidinones, a relatively new class of reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitors (MAOI). Studies show that derivatives such as 3-aryloxazolidin-2-one (oxazolidinones), which are regularly used to treat gram positive infections, represent a new class of reversible as well as irreversible inhibitors for MAO-A and MAO-B enzymes that are able to inhibit protein synthesis and also used for neurodegenerative-type pathologies.
Preparation Note
Toloxatone is soluble in DMSO at a concentration that is greater than 10 mg/ml.
A double-blind comparison of moclobemide and toloxatone was performed in adult out-patients diagnosed as suffering from a major depressive disorder. Parallel groups of patients received moclobemide, 450 mg/day (n = 135) or toloxatone, 1000 mg/day (n = 133) for 28
Eight compounds were isolated from the roots of Glycyrrhiza uralensis and tested for cholinesterase (ChE) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitory activities. The coumarin glycyrol (GC) effectively inhibited butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with IC50 values of 7.22 and 14.77 µM

The pharmacokinetics of toloxatone and ethanol were determined in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of conscious rabbits. According to a cross-over design, rabbits (n = 5) randomly received on three separate occasions either toloxatone (5 mg/kg), ethanol (1 g/kg), or toloxatone
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

Forced degradation of toloxatone in solutions under basic, acidic, neutral, photo UV-VIS, photo UVC and oxidative stress conditions was investigated and structural elucidation of its degradation products was performed with the use of UHPLC system coupled ESI-Q-TOF mass spectrometer. Eight
