Monoamine oxidase in rat placenta, human placenta, and cultured choriocarcinoma.
The activity of monoamine oxidase (MAO), an enzyme which metabolized catecholamines and indoleamines, was determined in rat placenta at various stages of gestation, in human term placenta, and in choriocarcinoma grown in culture. From Day 15 to Day 20 of gestation the specific activity (units/mg protein) of MAO in rat placenta increased at least 3-fold; from Day 20 to the time of parturition, i...

This dramatic advance was preceded by methodical basic laboratory research in the late 1950s and early 196...
