General description
Monoamine Oxidase A contains binding sites for 8α-S-cysteinyl-FAD.
Monoamine oxidases metabolize biogenic amines in the central nervous system and the peripheral tissue.
Application
Monoamine Oxidase A has been used in a study to assess abnormal behavior in a large kindred of males where a deficiency of enzymatic activity of monamine oxidase A was found. It has also been used in a study to investigate an association between smoking and the inhibition of MAOA.
Biochem/physiol Actions
MAO′s are proteins of the mitochondrial membrane. These enzymes are responsible for catalyzing oxidative deamination of endo- and xenobiotic amines. Substrate specificity differs for each isozyme.

血清素(5-羟色胺)主要存在于三种主要细胞类型中:i)中杻神经系统(CNS)和肠肌间神经丛中的血清素能神经元,ii)胃肠道粘膜中的肠嗜铬细胞,和iii)血小板。血清素的代谢主要通过外部线粒体膜酶单胺氧化酶(MAO)进行,它以两种分子亚型存在,分别称为MAO-A和MAO-B。
Serotonin is stored in cells and metabolized by MAO, influencing CNS, GI, and platelet functions.

Neurotransmitter catecholamines (dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine) are liable to undergo oxidation, which copper is deeply involved in. Catecholamine oxidation-derived neurotoxicity is recognized as a pivotal pathological mechanism in neurodegenerative diseases. Glutamate, as an excitatory neurotransmitter, is enriched in the brain

Several studies have documented a strong association between smoking and depression. Because cigarette smoke has been reported to inhibit monoamine oxidase (MAO) A in vitro and in animals and because MAO A inhibitors are effective antidepressants, we tested the hypothesis
