Abstract: (−)‐Deprenyl, a monoamine oxidase (MAO)‐B inhibitor, has been shown to increase neuronal survival and to alter protein synthesis and gene expression in astrocytic or PC12 cells independently of MAO‐B inhibition. We used serum and nerve growth factor withdrawal to induce apoptotic death in PC12 cells to determine whether (−)‐deprenyl increases neuronal survival by reducing apoptosis. (−)‐Deprenyl reduced both cell death and internucleosomal DNA degradation in a concentration‐dependent manner and was effective at concentrations too low to inhibit MAO (<10−9M). (+)‐Deprenyl did not increase PC12 cell survival, and, with the exception of pargyline, other MAO‐A and MAO‐B inhibitors did not alter apoptotic death. Transcriptional and translational inhibition showed that the reduction in apoptosis required the induction of new protein synthesis by (−)‐deprenyl. Increased survival was induced if transcription was maintained for 4 h and translation for 6 h after (−)‐deprenyl addition. The findings suggest that transcriptional induction may underlie the other MAO‐independent actions of (−)‐deprenyl.
