Tranylcypromine (hemisulfate)

Tranylcypromine (SKF 385) hemisulfate is an irreversible, nonselective monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor used in the treatment of depression. Tranylcypromine hemisulfate is also a lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) inhibitor, suppresses lesion growth and improves generalized hyperalgesia in mouse with induced endometriosis. Tranylcypromine has antidepressant effects[1][2].
