[The vehaviour of monoaminooxydase (MAO) activity in tumours. I. MAO activity measurement in experimental tumours (author's transl)]. 1976

K Kamiński, and J Bodziony, and W Matuszewski, and R Winter, and Waroński

The activity of MAO (EC 1.4.3.4) was measured in liver homogenates of mice with experimental tumours Sarcoma S-180 and Leukemia L-1210. The enzyme activity was determined by two methods: spectrophotometric--with benzylamine as a substrate and the second with the application of oxygen electrode and adrenaline as a substrate. An increase of the enzyme activity was observed in liver homogenates of mice with Sarcoma S-180 as compared with the controls. High activity of MAO with both substrates was also observed in Sarcoma ascites. In Leukemia L-1210 changes of activity in relation to adrenaline as a substrate were very small, but towards benzylamine the affinity of enzyme was higher (the increase of activity was about 50%).

D008995 Monoamine Oxidase An enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of naturally occurring monoamines. It is a flavin-containing enzyme that is localized in mitochondrial membranes, whether in nerve terminals, the liver, or other organs. Monoamine oxidase is important in regulating the metabolic degradation of catecholamines and serotonin in neural or target tissues. Hepatic monoamine oxidase has a crucial defensive role in inactivating circulating monoamines or those, such as tyramine, that originate in the gut and are absorbed into the portal circulation.

D006528 Carcinoma, Hepatocellular A primary malignant neoplasm of epithelial liver cells. It ranges from a well-differentiated tumor with EPITHELIAL CELLS indistinguishable from normal HEPATOCYTES to a poorly differentiated neoplasm. The cells may be uniform or markedly pleomorphic, or form GIANT CELLS. Several classification schemes have been suggested.
