Biological Activity

[Description]:

Methylpiperic acid is a piperine alkaloid with significant MAO inhibitory activity (IC503.6 μM). Methylpiperic acid is less effective against MAO-B (IC 501.6 μM) than MAO-A (IC5027.1 μM) has a bidirectional inhibitory effect. Methylphenidate is used to treat mental disorders [1].
