두충잎으로부터 얻은 MeOH 추출물의 n-BuOH 분획으로부터 silica gel column chromatography를 반복하여 monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) 억제 활성을 갖는 flavonoid 배당체를 분리하였다. 화합물의 화학구조를 스펙트럼 데이터의 해석과 산가수분해반응을 이용하여 $3-O-[{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl\;(1{\rightarrow}2)\;{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl]\;quercetin$으로 결정하였다. 이 화합물의 MAO-B 억제활성에 있어서의 $IC_{50}$ 값은 $8.05\;{\mu}mol/l$로 측정되었다.

The effects of evodiamine on monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity were investigated. MAO was purified from mouse brain and the $K_m\;and\;V_{max}$ values of MAO were $78.5{\pm}5.28{\mu}M$ and $0.68{\pm}0.07$ nmol/min/mg protein, respectively (n=4). Evodiamine at $30-120{\mu}M$ showed an inhibitory effect on MAO activity using a substrate kynuramine with an $IC_{50}$ value of $104.2{\mu}M$ (n=4). Evodiamine also exhibited a non-competitive inhibition on MAO. The $K_i$ value for evodiamine was $72.5{\pm}10.8{\mu}M$ (n=4). These results suggest that evodiamine partially contributes to the regulation of monoamine content.

The effects of monosodium glutamate (MSG) on the activities if tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), dopamine ${\beta}$-hydroxylase (DBH), tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) in various regions (cerebral cortex, striatum, midbrain, pons and medulla of nat brain have been determined. It was observed that up to 1mM MSGhad no significant effects on the activities of brain tyrosine hydroxylase, dopamine ${\beta}$-hydroxylase, tryptophan hydroxylase and monoamine oxidase in all regions of rat brain. These results indicated that MSG itself exerted no direct effect on the important enzymes synthsizing and metabolizing the monoaminergic neuronal system.

A series of new 4-aryl-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-diones have been synthesized via three component reaction of 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid with arylglyoxals in the presence of hydrazinium dihydrochloride in ethanol. All of these derivatives may act as potential monoamine oxidase inhibitors.

The effects of MeOH extracts from 28 herbal medicines on monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity were investigated. MAO was purified from mouse brain and its activity was determined by fluoro-photometry using kynuramine as a substrate. Three MeOH extracts, Coptis japonica, Cinnamomum cassia and Poncirus trifoliate from the herbal medicines showed a strong inhibitory effect with less than $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ in their inhibitory amounts of $50\%$ ($IC_{50}$ values) on MAO activity. Four MeOH extracts including Evodia officinalis exhibited a mild inhibition of MAO activity with $100-200\;{\mu}g/ml$ in their $IC_{50}$ values.

The review characterized active site(s) of MAO with respect to metal ions, hydrophobic and polar region, sulfhydryl group and flavin moiety. The mechanism of inhibition was dealt with three representative types of inhibitors; phenylcyclopropylamines, acetylenic amines, and hydrazines. Multiple forms of MAO was shortly described in relation to their selective inhibition. 84 reference were cited.

To explain the theory of KIMI which is the theory of therapeutics in oriental medicine, monoamine oxidase(MAO) activities were measured in the brain and liver of mice which were orally administered oriental medicinal herbs which were classified into cold and hot drugs. Rheum palmatum, Anemarrhena asphodeloides, Gardenia jasminoides, Scutellaria baicalensis and Coptis japonica were considered as the cold drugs and Zingiber officinale, Aconitum carmichaeli, Asiasarum sieboldi, Evodia officinalis and Cinnamomum cassia were included in the hot drugs. The effects of cold and hot drugs on in vitro enzyme activities were measured and compared with the in vivo effects. Serotonin is important neurotransmetter involved in the control of body temperature. The MAO plays a central role in the metabolism of many neurotransmetter monoamines including serotonin. MAO is a flavoprotein found exclusively in the mitochondrial outer membrane, occuring in the MAO-A and MAO-B subtypes. MAO-A deaminates serotonin and noradrenaline, whereas MAO-B prefers phenylethylamine and benzylamine as substrates. Coptis japonica and Aconitum carmichaeli elevated the in vivo MAO activities and especialy, in vivo MAO-B activities were significantly increased. In vitro MAO-A activities were increased by hot drugs, whereas the in vitro MAO-B activities were inhibited. Cold drugs inhibited both enzyme activities in vitro.

We examined the inhibitory activities against monoamine oxidase (MAO) of Gardenia jasminoides in vitro and in vivo methods. Methanolic extract and ethylacetate fraction of Gardenia jasminoides fruit showed a significant inhibitory activity on MAO-A and MAO-B in vitro. The IC$_{50}$ values of each fraction on MAO-A and MAO-B are as fo11owed; total methanol extracts 1.23 and 1.34 mg/ml, EtOAc fraction 0.72 and 0.77 mg/ml. Water-soluble fraction also showed IC$_{50}$ values of 0.81 mg/ml on MAO-B. MAO-A activity was increased by the oral administration of ethanolic extract of G. jasminoides, while MAO-B activity was decreased. The concentration of serotonin of brain tissue administrated of ethanolic extract of G. jasminoides is slightly increased in rat. This tendency is not different from the activity of deprenyl which is a well known MAO inhibitor was used as a positive control. Consequently, we suggest that G. jasminoides may have the effects on the inhibitory activity against MAO This activity of G. jasminoides is considerable for development of functional materials for treatment and control of depression, dementia, Parkinson' disease, stress and promoting exercise, etc.

카바메이트계 농약인 카보푸란은 어류에 대한 독성이 매우 높으며, 낮은 농도에서 어류의 척추기형이나 행동이상을 유발한다. 이러한 카보푸란의 독성기전을 밝히기 위한 일환으로 신경물질대사와 관련이 깊은 acetylcholine esterase(AChE)와 monoamine oxidase(MAO)에 미치는 농약의 효과를 송사리(Oryzias latipes; Medaka fish)를 이용하여 평가하였다. Medaka fish에 대한 카보푸란의 반수치사농도(LC$_{50}$)는 2.5 ppm이었으며, 1 ppb 카보푸란에 24시간 노출된 경우, AChE 효소활성이 머리와 몸통부위에서 각각 30, 20%씩 감소되었다. 한편, MAO 효소활성은 카보푸란의 농도가 증가함에 따라 머리부위에서는 감소한 반면, 몸통부위에서는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 특히 카보푸란의 농도가 1 ppb에서도 송사리의 MAO 효소활성이 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나, 카보푸란에 의한 송사리의 행동이상은 AChE 활성 뿐 아니라 MAO활성의 변화에 의한 복합적인 효과일 가능성이 높다.
