1 Characterization of non-nitrocatechol pan and isoform specific catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitors and substrates. nitrocatechol catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
2 Subsequent optimization led to the identification of novel, non-nitrocatechol COMT inhibitors, some of which interact specifically with MB-COMT. nitrocatechol catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
3 Finally, novel non-nitrocatechol COMT inhibitors displayed less potent uncoupling of the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) compared to tolcapone as well as nonhepatotoxic entacapone, thus mitigating the risk of hepatotoxicity. nitrocatechol catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
