The amine oxidase of human blood lymphocytes and granulocytes. 1983

G Banchelli, and R Fantozzi, and G Ignesti, and R Pirisino, and L Raimondi, and F Buffoni

The deamination of some monoamines in human blood lymphocytes and granulocytes is dependent on the presence of two different enzymes: a mitochondrial (type B) monoamine oxidase and a "benzylamine oxidase" similar to the plasma BAO which is inhibited by semicarbazide and resistant to clorgyline.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
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.
