Monoamine Oxidase

MAO

Monoamine oxidases (MAO) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of monoamines. They are found bound to the outer membrane of mitochondria in most cell types in the body. They belong to the protein family of flavin-containing amine oxidoreductases. Monoamine oxidases catalyze the oxidative deamination of monoamines. Oxygen is used to remove an amine group from a molecule, resulting in the corresponding aldehyde and ammonia. Monoamine oxidases contain the covalently bound cofactor FAD and are, thus, classified as flavoproteins. Because of the vital role that MAOs play in the inactivation of neurotransmitters, MAO dysfunction is thought to be responsible for a number of psychiatric and neurological disorders. MAO-A inhibitors act as antidepressant and antianxiety agents, whereas MAO-B inhibitors are used alone or in combination to treat Alzheimer’sand Parkinson’s diseases.

    Harmane
    Inhibitor 99.91%
    Harmane is an inhibitor that binds to benzodiazepine receptors (with an IC50 value of 7 μM), has an IC50 of 24 μM for muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (QNB), an IC50 of 2.8 μM for opioid receptors, and IC50 values of 163 and 101 μM for spironolactone and serotonin, respectively. Harmane is a selective monoamine oxidase inhibitor (with IC50 values of 0.5 μM for MAO A and 5 μM for MAO B). Harman inhibits dopamine biosynthesis by decreasing tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity and enhancing levodopa (L-DOPA)-induced toxicity in PC12 cells. Harmane lowers blood pressure in rats through the I1 imidazoline receptor (I1 receptor) and has antidepressant, anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and analgesic effects. Harmane enhances the mutagenicity induced by 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF) .
