Description: Safinamide, also known as FCE-26743 and EMD-1195686, is a drug indicated for the treatment of Parkinson's disease with multiple methods of action. Potential additional uses might be restless legs syndrome (RLS) and epilepsy. Safinamide is a reversible and selective monoamine oxidase B inhibitor, reducing degradation of dopamine, and a glutamate release inhibitor. It also inhibits dopamine reuptake. Additionally, safinamide blocks sodium and calcium channels. Safinamide has been approved by the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of adult patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease as add-on therapy to a stable dose of Levodopa (L-dopa) alone or in combination with other PD drugs in patients with mid-to-late-stage fluctuating disease.

More Info:

Biological target: Safinamide is a potent, selective, and reversible monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor (IC50=0.098 µM) over MAO-A (IC50=580 µM).
In vitro activity: Safinamide might have potential for the prevention and therapy of Alzheimer's disease. In amyloid (Aβ)1-42 oligomers-stimulated M17 neuronal cells, safinamide ameliorated Aβ1-42 oligomers-induced oxidative stress. Safinamide treatment significantly ameliorated SA-β-gal-positive cells and telomerase activity. Safinamide treatment resulted in decreased mRNA and protein expressions of p21 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1).

In vivo activity: In a rat model of chronic constriction injury (CCI), safinamide improved neuropathic pain in male CCI rats. Single oral administration of safinamide dose-dependently improved neuropathic pain in pain assessments on day 14. With repeated administration, the effect of safinamide on pain was enhanced.
