Safinamide (FCE 26743) selectively and reversibly inhibits MAO-B with IC50 of 98 nM, exhibits 5918-fold selectivity against MAO-A[1].
Safinamide (FCE 26743) is a highly selective and reversible monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitor that increases neostriatal dopamine concentration. In addition, Safinamide (FCE 26743) is voltage-dependent sodium and calcium channel blocker. Safinamide (FCE 26743) 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[1].
