| pubmed-article:9629538 | pubmed:abstractText | A new series of 1,3,5-triphenyl-4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazole derivatives was synthesized to ascertain the contribution of substituted phenyl rings present on the 4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazole nucleus to the monoamine oxidases inhibition and bovine serum amine oxidase inhibition. All compounds were tested on bovine brain mitochondria preparation containing flavin-monoamine oxidases and on purified bovine serum amine oxidases, taken as a model of trihydroxyphenylalanine quinone-copper-containing amine oxidases. The 1,3,5-triphenyl-4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazole derivatives showed a good inhibitory activity and belonged to the third generation of monoamine oxidase inhibitors and bovine serum amine oxidase inhibitors which have the advantage of acting through a reversible mode. Furthermore, their activity showed a good degree of selectivity towards the bovine serum amine oxidase inhibition dependent on the substituents present on the phenyl ring at position 5 of the 4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazole. | lld:pubmed |
