was this in reference to selegiline? it upregulates some antioxidants in the brain like SOD. Also MAO tends to create some neurotoxins as it metabolizes random stuff floating around in the brain. dopainergic degeneration even if not to parkinsons still results in symptoms of old age, i think this is why it extends life in some animals studdies. not aware of any other MAOI showing effects, although any MAOB inhibiting drug would share some of the effects.
