Draft:Sarmentosin

  • Comment: Although there are medical review articles listed as references (ref 2,4,5,6), these are just on the topic of MAO inhibitors, and do not mention "Sarmentosin". So most of this article appears as a synthesis or original research. One important aspect, the toxicity is missing from this page. reference 4 used to reference the cancer statement does not mention cancer. So more suitable references will beed to be used to support most of this draft. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:18, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: An infobox with the CAS number would be helpful. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:04, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: The DOIs are broken. Many of these are medical claims that require additional scrutiny per WP:MEDRS before they can be published. Remsense ‥  09:02, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Sarmentosin is a glycoside and a natural product primarily derived from several plant species, notably Ribes nigrum (blackcurrants):[1] and Rhodiola sacra.[2] It has gained attention for its potential therapeutic applications, including recently as an inhibitor of monoamine oxidase (MAO), an enzyme involved in the metabolism of neurotransmitters.[1] Research has highlighted the ability of sarmentosin to inhibit MAO-B, a subtype of the enzyme, suggesting its role in managing conditions related to monoamine neurotransmitter levels.
