| Application: | Safinamide mesylate salt has been used as a reference drug to study its inhibitory effect on human monoamine oxidases (hMAO-A and hMAO-B). |
| Application: | Safinamide mesylate salt may be used in cell signaling studies. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Safinamide is a highly selective and reversible monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitor that increases neostriatal dopamine concentration. In addition, safinamide is voltage-dependent sodium and calcium channel blocker. It appears to bind to the batrachotoxin-sensitive site 2 of the voltage-sensitive sodium channels. Safinamide blocks N and L-type calcium channels and inhibits glutamate and aspartate release from synaptic terminals. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Safinamide is a sodium and calcium channel blocker that is also a selective and reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B); anticonvulsant |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Safinamide mesylate prevents dopamine reuptake and is effective in the treatment of epilepsy and Parkinson′s disease. |
