MAO inhibiting Psychotria ?

Recommended Posts

Was looking for something else and recently came across an article (attached) about different alkaloids in various Psychotria species. (I will now indulge in my favorite procrastinating technique: pillaging articles for anything of interest that is unrelated to my work or study :wink: )

I'll leave the deciphering of the scientific results to someone who rally understands them. But what even I got was that some of the species mentioned contained alkaloids that exhibited MAO-A inhibition (as well as MAO-B, and AChe).

So, anyone got any Psychotria laciniata ?

On a more ethnobotany related note, does anyone know of any Psychotria that might be used traditionally, in a way that would suggest MAO inhibiting activity.
