| Targets |
Tranylcypromine HCl targets multiple enzymes and receptors. It is an irreversible inhibitor of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1/KDM1A), with an IC50 of 20.7 µM in a cell-free assay. It also irreversibly inhibits monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and MAO-B with IC50 values of 2.3 and 0.95 µM, respectively. Additionally, it inhibits CYP2A6 with Ki values of 0.08 µM and 0.2 µM in cDNA-expressing microsomes and human liver microsomes, respectively. By inhibiting LSD1, it prevents histone demethylation, thereby modulating gene expression. Inhibition of MAO prevents the breakdown of monoamine neurotransmitters, contributing to its antidepressant effects.

| ln Vitro |
Human primary keratinocytes transduced by two factors, Oct4 and Klf4, undergo reprogramming when Tranylcypromine (SKF 385) (GMP) and Laduviglusib are combined [2].
In vitro, Tranylcypromine HCl is an irreversible inhibitor of LSD1 with an IC50 of 20.7 µM. It inhibits MAO A and MAO B with IC50 values of 2.3 and 0.95 µM, respectively. It also inhibits CYP2A6 with Ki values of 0.08 µM and 0.2 µM in cDNA-expressing microsomes and human liver microsomes, respectively. These in vitro studies confirm its multi-target mechanism of action. The compound is used as a tool to study histone demethylation and monoamine oxidase inhibition in various cell-based and biochemical assays. |
| ln Vivo |
In wild-type mice, tranylcypromine hydrochlorid (3 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; once daily for three days) reduces proinflammatory cytokine COX-2 and IL-6 levels as well as LPS-mediated microglial activation[3]. In 5xFAD mice, tranylcypromine hydrochlorid (3 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; once daily for 7 days) reduces Aβ-mediated microglial activation[3].
In vivo, Tranylcypromine HCl is an irreversible inhibitor of MAO and LSD1. It has been used clinically as an antidepressant due to its ability to inhibit MAO, thereby increasing the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain. Its inhibition of LSD1 has also been studied for potential therapeutic applications in cancer and other diseases. The compound is orally active and crosses the blood-brain barrier, allowing it to exert its effects on the central nervous system. Its clinical use is limited due to its side effect profile, including hypertensive crisis. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cellular enzyme assays for Tranylcypromine HCl typically involve measuring its inhibition of MAO or LSD1 activity. For MAO inhibition, assays use purified MAO A or MAO B enzyme and a fluorogenic or radiometric substrate, such as kynuramine or serotonin, to measure the rate of enzymatic reaction in the presence of varying concentrations of the compound. For LSD1 inhibition, assays use purified LSD1 enzyme and a histone H3 peptide substrate to measure demethylation activity. IC50 values are determined from dose-response curves. These assays are essential for characterizing its potency and selectivity.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for Tranylcypromine HCl are conducted using cancer cell lines or neuronal cell cultures to assess its effects on histone demethylation, gene expression, and cell proliferation. Cells are treated with the compound, and changes in histone H3K4me2 methylation levels are measured by Western blotting or immunofluorescence. Cell viability and proliferation are assessed using MTT or similar assays. These experiments are crucial for confirming its mechanism of action at the cellular level and for identifying its potential therapeutic applications.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Wild-type mice[3]
Doses: 3 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip)injection; 3 mg/kg one time/day for 3 days Experimental Results: Dramatically down-regulated LPS-stimulated microglial activation in the cortex and Hippocampus, and LPS-induced astrocyte activation only in the cortex. decreased LPS-induced COX-2 levels in hippocampus CA1, diminished LPS-evoked IL-6 levels in the cortex and hippocampus CA1 and suppressed LPS-mediated IL-1β levels in the cortex. Animal/Disease Models: 5xFAD mice[3] Doses: 3 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip)injection; 3 mg/kg one time/day for 7 days Experimental Results: Differentially regulated microglial and astrocyte activation in this mouse model of AD. In vivo animal studies for Tranylcypromine HCl are typically conducted in rodent models of depression or cancer to evaluate its efficacy. For depression models, the compound is administered orally or intraperitoneally, and behavioral tests such as the forced swim test or tail suspension test are used to assess antidepressant-like effects. For cancer models, tumor-bearing mice are treated with the compound, and tumor growth is monitored. These studies are essential for validating its in vivo efficacy and for understanding its pharmacological profile. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Tranylcypromine HCl is an orally active compound with a molecular weight of 169.66 g/mol. It is well-absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and crosses the blood-brain barrier. Its pharmacokinetic properties have been studied in clinical settings. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted by the kidneys.
