moclobemide and Alzheimer Disease

moclobemide has been researched along with Alzheimer Disease in 5 studies

Moclobemide: A reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type A; (RIMA); (see MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITORS) that has antidepressive properties.
moclobemide : A member of the class of benzamides that is benzamide substituted by a chloro group at position 4 and a 2-(morpholin-4-yl)ethyl group at the nitrogen atom. It acts as a reversible monoamine oxidase inhibitor and is used in the treatment of depression.

Alzheimer Disease: A degenerative disease of the BRAIN characterized by the insidious onset of DEMENTIA. Impairment of MEMORY, judgment, attention span, and problem solving skills are followed by severe APRAXIAS and a global loss of cognitive abilities. The condition primarily occurs after age 60, and is marked pathologically by severe cortical atrophy and the triad of SENILE PLAQUES; NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLES; and NEUROPIL THREADS. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1049-57)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Depression is common in patients with senile dementia of the Alzheimer type (SDAT) and may precede the onset of the dementia; the underlying biological and neurotransmitter mechanisms may be common to both diseases, so far as norepinephrine lesions are concerned."2.38Depression and senile dementia of the Alzheimer type: a role for moclobemide. ( Chan-Palay, V, 1992)
"Moclobemide has shown unequivocal antidepressant activity against serious depressive illness in 4 placebo-controlled double-blind trials."1.29Reversible and selective inhibitors of monoamine oxidase A in mental and other disorders. ( Gimbrett, R; Priest, RG; Roberts, M; Steinert, J, 1995)
