Monoamine oxidase in schizophrenia: an overview.
A brief history and summary of studies designed to elucidate the role of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in schizophrenia are presented. The majority of these studies have reported a decrease in the platelet enzyme activity of chronic schizophrenic patients when compared to controls. Difficulties encountered when comparing MAO activity measured in different patient populations are also considered. Fina...
متن کاملBrain and skeletal muscle monoamine oxidase activity in schizophrenia.
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity has been studied in postmortem brain specimens from chronic schizophrenics and comparison groups by various laboratories. There is no evidence for decreased MAO activity in the brains of the schizophrenic patients, but many possible sources of error in postmortem studies make the conclusions of these studies less than definitive. However, since almost complete i...
متن کاملInhibition of monoamine oxidase by stilbenes from Rheum palmatum
Seven stilbenes and one catechin were bioactivity-guidedly isolated from the rhizomes of Rheum palmatem. Their structures were identified as piceatannol(1), resveratrol(2), piceid(3), rhapontigenin(4), piceatannol-3'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(5), rhaponticin(6), catechin(7) and desoxyrhapontigenin(8). Anti-monoamine oxidase (MAO) activities of compounds 1–8 were tested. Compounds 1 and 8 showed sig...
متن کاملAn evaluation of phospholipids as regulators of monoamine oxidase A and monoamine oxidase B activities.
When rat liver mitochondria are treated with the phospholipase A2 isolated from Naja naja venom in amounts sufficient to cause about 70% loss of mitochondrial phospholipids, both of the monoamine oxidase isozymes monoamine oxidase A and monoamine oxidase B are reduced in activity. With both monoamine oxidases, phospholipase treatment affects the enzyme’s affinity for the amine substrates rather...
