Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most lethal and prevalent type of lung cancer. In almost all types of cancer, the levels of polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) are increased, playing a pivotal role in tumor proliferation ...

Glutamate, Ornithine, Arginine, Proline, and Polyamine Metabolic Interactions: The Pathway Is Regulated at the Post-Transcriptional Level [PDF]
The metabolism of glutamate into ornithine, arginine, proline, and polyamines is a major network of nitrogen-metabolizing pathways in plants, which also produces intermediates like nitric oxide, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) that play critical roles in ...

Many effects of polyamines (PAs) are well known in plant developmental processes; however, the significance of their catabolism is not well understood. Copper amine oxidase (CuAO) is involved in the degradation of diamine putrescine (Put).

The immunological effects of the polyamine oxidase enzyme partially cleared from the cerebrospinal fluid against secondary secondary cystitis in white mice. Coagulation factor and delayed hypersensitivity [PDF]
The study included immune response to infection with secondary hydatid disease in BALB/c mice activated by partially purified cerebrospinal fluid-polyamine oxidase (CSF-PAO) with spermine and infected with protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus.

Involvement of Polyamine Oxidase in Wound Healing [PDF]
AbstractHydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is involved in plant defense responses that follow mechanical damage, such as those that occur during herbivore or insect attacks, as well as pathogen attack. H2O2 accumulation is induced during wound healing processes as well as by treatment with the wound signal jasmonic acid.

Semicarbazide diminishes the signs of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in rats [PDF]
The pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is accompanied by extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, oxidative stress, and inflammation progression, as well as hyperactivation of amine oxidases (AOs), which contribute to disease manifestation.

Polyamine Oxidase from Water Hyacinth [PDF]
Polyamine oxidase was purified to homogeneity from leaves of water hyacinth by the criterion of sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis (SDS disc PAGE). The enzyme showed a high specificity for spermidine and spermine (K(m) values 28 micromolar and 20 micromolar, respectively).

Inhibition of acetylpolyamine and spermine oxidases by the polyamine analogue chlorhexidine [PDF]
""Acetylpolyamine and spermine oxidases are involved in the catabolism of polyamines. The discovery of selective. inhibitors of these enzymes represents an important tool for the development of novel anti-neoplastic drugs. Here, a.
