Smoking-induced long-lasting modifications of human platelet serotonin catabolism through a MAO epigenetic regulation [PDF]
Postulating that serotonin, secreted from smoking-activated platelets, could be involved in smoking-induced vascular modifications, we studied 115 men distributed in smokers (S), former smokers (FS) and never smokers (NS).

Development of novel fluorine-18 labeled PET radioligands for monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) [PDF]
Monoamine oxidases (MAO-A and MAO-B) are important enzymes regulating the levels of monoaminergic neurotransmitters. Selectiv e and irreversible MAO-B inhibitors such as L -deprenyl and rasagiline are clinically used for the t reatment of ...

Expression regulation of MAO isoforms in monocytic cells in response to Th2 cytokines [PDF]
Background: Th2-cytokines, such as interleukins-4 and –13 (IL-4, IL-13), have been identified as alternative stimuli of monocytes/macrophages. We have recently profiled the gene-expression pattern of IL-4-teated human peripheral monocytes and found that ...

New Approaches to the Treatment of Age-Related Brain Disorders [PDF]
Two novel reversible enzyme inhibitors involved in monoamine metabolism are described. The novel and reversible inhibitors are the catechol-O-methyl-transferase (COMT) inhibitor, Ro 40-7592 (3,4-dihydroxy-4'-methyl-5-nitrobenzophenone), and the monoamine
