1 Although nitrocatechol COMT inhibitors have been used in the treatment of Parkinson"s disease, efforts have been made to discover non-nitrocatechol inhibitors. nitrocatechol catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
2 In the present study, the 3-hydroxypyridin-4-one scaffold was selected for the design and synthesis of non-nitrocatechol COMT inhibitors since the COMT inhibitory potential of this class has been illustrated. nitrocatechol catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
3 Although these compounds are not highly potent inhibitors, they may act as leads for the development of non-nitrocatechol COMT inhibitors. nitrocatechol catechol-O-methyltransferase Homo sapiens
