Phosphodiesterase 3  Inhibitor
Hypotensive effects
Monoamine oxidase-B selective  Inhibitor
      Key Mechanism Factor 1
Factor Name Phosphodiesterase 3 Structure Sequence
Protein Family Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family
Protein Function
Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase with specificity for the second messengers cAMP and cGMP, which are key regulators of many important physiological processes (PubMed:1315035, PubMed:8695850, PubMed:8155697, PubMed:25961942). Has also activity toward cUMP (PubMed:27975297). Independently of its catalytic activity it is part of an E2/17beta-estradiol-induced pro-apoptotic signaling pathway. E2 stabilizes the PDE3A/SLFN12 complex in the cytosol, promoting the dephosphorylation of SLFN12 and activating its pro-apoptotic ribosomal RNA/rRNA ribonuclease activity. This apoptotic pathway might be relevant in tissues with high concentration of E2 and be for instance involved in placenta remodeling (PubMed:31420216, PubMed:34707099).

Gene Name MAOB
Uniprot ID AOFB_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:4129
Protein Family Flavin monoamine oxidase family
Protein Function
Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of primary and some secondary amines such as neurotransmitters, and exogenous amines including the tertiary amine, neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), with concomitant reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide and participates in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues (PubMed:11134050, PubMed:8665924, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:11049757, PubMed:20493079). Preferentially degrades benzylamine and phenylethylamine (PubMed:11134050, PubMed:8665924, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:11049757, PubMed:20493079).

      Mechanism Description
  • Additive hypotensive effects by the combination of Milrinone and Safinamide 

Recommended Action
      Management Caution is advised during coadministration of MAOIs and other medications with hypotensive effects, especially during the first few weeks of treatment. Close monitoring for development of hypotension is recommended. Ambulatory patients should be advised to avoid rising abruptly from a sitting or recumbent position and to notify their physician if they experience dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope, orthostasis, or tachycardia.
