Pirlindole is a selective and reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase (MAO) subtype A (MAO-A). It exerts an inhibitory effect on noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptakes. It has no effect on the dopaminergic and cholinergic systems. It has only a low potential for amplifying tyramine and noradrenaline pressor effect, which makes one expect that it will not be at the basis of a ‘cheese effect’. Pirlindole was approved in some European and non-European countries for the treatment of depression. The antidepressant efficacy and safety of pirlindole have been demonstrated in a number of placebo- and active comparator-controlled studies and are supported by many years of clinical experience in the treatment of depression. The drug's efficacy and safety have also been demonstrated in the treatment of fibromyalgia syndrome. Pirlindole has a favorable tolerability profile, with no deleterious effect on cardiovascular dynamics. The effect of pirlindole on sensorimotor performance relevant to driving a motor vehicle is similar to that of placebo, as pirlindole appears to have an activating rather than a sedating antidepressant profile. Pirlindole prevented qualitative alteration (transformation) in the catalytic activity of membrane-bound type A monoamine oxidases (MAO-A), pathogenetically important for the development of the audiogenic seizures.

Halofuginone is a low molecular weight quinazolinone alkaloid, and a potent inhibitor of collagen alpha1(I) and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) gene expression. Halofuginone also effectively suppresses tumor progression and metastasis in mice. Halofuginone is a potent inhibitor of collagen a1(I) and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) gene expression. Halofuginone also suppresses extracellular matrix deposition and cell proliferation. Also was shown that halofuginone increased apoptosis in α smooth muscle actin- and prolyl 4-hydroxylase β-expressing cells in mdx diaphragm and in myofibroblasts, the major source of extracellular matrix. The profound antitumoral effect of halofuginone is attributed to its combined inhibition of tumour-stromal support, vascularization, invasiveness, and cell proliferation. HT-100 (delayed-release halofuginone), currently in clinical phase 1b/2a in five U.S. hospitals, is a small molecule drug candidate taken orally for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients primarily through its ability to reduce fibrosis and inflammation and promote muscle fiber regeneration. The medicine candidate has been granted orphan drug designation in the U.S. and the EU — meaning it has been commercially undeveloped due to its limited profitability — and fast-track designation in the U.S. — an FDA process that aims to facilitate the development and patients’ reach to novel therapies for unmet medical needs.
Bromopyruvate is an halogenated analogue of pyruvic acid known as an alkylating agent reacting with thiol groups of many proteins. Bromopyruvate exerts anticancer action. It is based on the impairment of energy metabolism of tumor cells by inhibiting enzymes in the glycolysis pathway (hexokinase II, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase) and the oxidative phosphorylation (succinate dehydrogenase). Bromopyruvate induces endoplasmic reticulum stress, inhibits global protein synthesis further contributing to cancer cell death. Treatment with bromopyruvate has been administered in several cancer type models both in vitro and in vivo, either alone or in combination with other anticancer therapeutic approaches. These studies clearly demonstrate bromopyruvate broad action against multiple cancer types. This compound has also antifungal and antiparasitic activity.
