The impact of brofaromine (CGP 11305A, BRO) on MAO-A activity in cultured cortical cells was assessed in order to assess if the protective effect is connected to the inhibition of MAO-A or results from alternative mechanisms. MAO-A activity in cultured cortical cells was demonstrated to be substantial in the first place, and bromofaromine was found to block this enzyme in a concentration-dependent way. Bromfaramine has an IC50 of 0.19 μM. There is a 0.96 Hill coefficient. At 10 μM, the enzyme was nearly entirely inhibited. In our cultured cortical cells, brofaromine suppresses MAO-A activity in a concentration-dependent way. The IC50 range for brofaromine is 0.01 μM to 0.1 μM[1].

It has been shown that the MAO (monoamine oxidase)-B inhibitor deprenyl (DPR, selegiline) protects some cell types against oxidative stress. By decreasing H(2)O(2) production, MAO-A inhibitors could also reduce oxidative stress. This study reports the effect of the MAO-A inhibitors, pirlindole (PIR), dehydropirlindole (DHP), brofaromine (BRO) and moclobemide (MCL) on primary-cultured brain cells exposed to iron-mediated toxicity. A comparison with trolox (TRO), a hydrosoluble vitamin-E analogue that protects against such an induced stress, was performed. Rat hippocampal or cortical cultured cells were exposed either to 2 microM FeSO(4) alone or in the presence of PIR, DHP, BRO, DPR, MCL or TRO. Cell survival (lactate-dehydrogenase measurements, 16 h incubation), intracellular peroxide production (DCF-fluorescence, 1 h incubation), lipoperoxidation (TBARS-fluorescence, 6 h incubation) and mitochondrial function (MTT-test, 16 h incubation) were assessed. PIR, DHP and TRO significantly protected cultures (P<0.05) against Fe(2+)-induced toxicity in a concentration-dependent manner. The EC(50s) of these compounds were 6, 12 and 19 microM, respectively, in hippocampal cells. For cortical cell cultures incubated in the presence of iron and PIR or DHP, EC(50s) were 5 and 6 microM respectively. All Hill coefficients were close to unity. BRO, MCL and DPR were not protective in any type of culture. The IC(50s) for the inhibition of MAO-A were 2, 2 and 0.2 microM for PIR, DHP and BRO, respectively. PIR, DHP and TRO, but not DPR, induced a significant decrease in both intracellular peroxide production and lipoperoxidation. They also improved mitochondrial function. These experiments show that PIR and DHP can protect hippocampal and cortical neurons against oxidative stress at pharmacologically relevant concentrations. This protective effect seems unrelated to inhibition of MAO-A, but possibly involves free radical scavenging. [1]

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 62.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
