Subcellular Location of Semicarbazide‐Sensitive Amine Oxidase in Rat Aorta

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1980
With tyramine as substrate, a considerable part of the amine oxidase activity of rat aorta was inhibited by 0.1 mM semicarbazide. The residual activity was little affected by 1 mM semiicarbazide. Oxidation of 5‐hydroxytryptamine was not inhibited by 0.1 mM semicarbazide.

Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase in transgenic mice with diabetes

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2004
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) activity in plasma is increased in diabetes, and in particular, in diabetic patients with vascular complications. It has been speculated that SSAO is involved in the development of such complications due to the production of cytotoxic compounds.

Methylamine metabolism to formaldehyde by vascular semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase

Toxicology, 1992
The capacity of the vascular enzyme, semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO), to metabolize methylamine to the potentially toxic product, formaldehyde, was tested using rat aortic homogenates and purified porcine aortic SSAO. Formaldehyde production in incubations of enzyme source with methylamine (1 mM) was detected by high performance liquid ...

Developmental Vasculotoxicity Associated with Inhibition of Semicarbazide-Sensitive Amine Oxidase

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1999
The endogenous substrate(s) and physiological function(s) of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO), a group of enzymes exhibiting highest activity in vascular smooth muscle cells of the mammalian aortic wall, remain undetermined. This study examines the pathophysiological effects in the thoracic aortic wall resulting from specific in vivo SSAO ...

Diabetes and semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) activity: A review

Life Sciences, 2006
The enzyme of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) activity has been reported to be elevated in blood from diabetic patients. SSAO are widely distributed in plasma membranes of various tissues and blood plasma. SSAO-mediated production of toxic aldehydes has been proposed to be related to pathophysiological conditions.

The inhibition of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase by aminohexoses

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Proteins and Proteomics, 2003
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.6; amine:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating) (copper-containing); SSAO) is a multifunctional protein. It acts under inflammatory conditions as a vascular-adhesion protein (VAP-1), mediating the adhesion of lymphocytes to vascular endothelial cells. The relationships, if any, between this adhesion function

Plasma Semicarbazide-Sensitive Amine Oxidase in Stroke

European Neurology, 1999
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) has been suggested to be involved in the development of vascular endothelial damage. The source of the soluble form of SSAO found in the blood serum is unknown. However, it has been speculated that it is secreted from cells within the vascular wall where high activity of the enzyme is found.

Semicarbazide-Sensitive Amine Oxidase: Current Status and Perspectives

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2004
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine-oxidase (SSAO) is present in various human tissues and in plasma. Oxidative deamination of short-chain aliphatic amines is catalyzed by this enzyme to afford the corresponding aldehydes, ammonia and hydrogen peroxide. Methylamine and aminoacetone have been recognized to be physiological substrates for SSAO.

Some properties of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidases

1987
The semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidases (SSAOs) comprise a substantial but diffuse group of enzymes separable from classical monoamine oxidase in several respects. Differences in cofactor requirement, molecular weight and subcellular distribution are crucial for such a separation.
