Abstrakt: Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a significant health burden globally, necessitating a deeper understanding of its molecular intricacies for effective therapeutic interventions. Elevated monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) expression has been consistently observed in CRC tissues, correlating with advanced disease stages and a poorer prognosis. This research explores the systems biology effects of MAO-A inhibition with small molecule inhibitor clorgyline regarding CRC. The applied systems biology approach starts with a chemocentric informatics approach to derive high-confidence hypotheses regarding the antiproliferative effects of MAO-A inhibitors and ends with experimental validation. Our computational results emphasized the anticancer effects of MAO-A inhibition and the chemogenomics similarities between clorgyline and structurally diverse groups of apoptosis inducers in addition to highlighting apoptotic, DNA-damage, and microRNAs in cancer pathways. Experimental validation results revealed that MAO inhibition results in antiproliferative antimigratory activities in addition to synergistic effects with doxorubicin. Moreover, the results demonstrated a putative role of MAO-A inhibition in commencing CRC cellular death by potentially mediating the induction of apoptosis.
