Ethanol involvement in putrescine and histamine oxidation by guinea pig liver. 1984

The in vitro influence of ethanol and acetaldehyde on diamine oxidase catalyzed reaction was measured with guinea pig liver and intestine. Acetaldehyde, having no influence on diamine oxidase activity, diminished the formation of gamma-aminobutyric acid or imidazole-4-acetic acid when putrescine or histamine were used, respectively, as enzyme substrate. During ethanol ingestion by guinea pig the enhancement of hepatic diamine oxidase activity was observed after 10 days of treatment with subsequent decrease to the control value on the 18th day. The metabolic products of putrescine in diamine oxidase catalyzed reaction by livers of alcohol animals show similar increase and the same time course as enzymic activity. The per cent distribution of particular products in diamine oxidase reaction was not affected by ethanol administration.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007093 Imidazoles Compounds containing 1,3-diazole, a five membered aromatic ring containing two nitrogen atoms separated by one of the carbons. Chemically reduced ones include IMIDAZOLINES and IMIDAZOLIDINES. Distinguish from 1,2-diazole (PYRAZOLES).
D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
D008297 Male Males
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D011700 Putrescine A toxic diamine formed by putrefaction from the decarboxylation of arginine and ornithine. 1,4-Butanediamine,1,4-Diaminobutane,Tetramethylenediamine,1,4 Butanediamine,1,4 Diaminobutane

D006168 Guinea Pigs A common name used for the genus Cavia. The most common species is Cavia porcellus which is the domesticated guinea pig used for pets and biomedical research. Cavia,Cavia porcellus,Guinea Pig,Pig, Guinea,Pigs, Guinea
D006631 Amine Oxidase (Copper-Containing) A group of enzymes including those oxidizing primary monoamines, diamines, and histamine. They are copper proteins, and, as their action depends on a carbonyl group, they are sensitive to inhibition by semicarbazide.
