Produktinformation

• Name: (+)-Tranylcypromine hydrochloride
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: (+)-Tranylcypromine hydrochloride is a drug that is used for the treatment of depression. It inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO) and reversibly inhibits the activity of tyrosine hydroxylase, which are enzymes involved in the production of amines. The binding of this drug to lysine residues on the enzyme MAO-A prevents the oxidation of dopamine and other neurotransmitters, such as serotonin. This drug has shown to have pluripotent effects in animal studies. (+)-Tranylcypromine hydrochloride has been shown to induce dedifferentiation in human liver cells grown in culture, which may be due to its ability to inhibit protein synthesis. There are many known drug interactions with (+)-tranylcypromine hydrochloride. Clinical studies have found that it increases cardiovascular toxicity when taken with drugs such as beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, and clonidine.
