摘要
Although the physiological role of endogenous monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor still remains unclear, the present study examined whether or not immobilization stress (IMMO) induce MAO inhibitor. An endogenous inhibitor of MAO was separated by gel filtration from 105,000 g supernate in rat liver cytosol following IMMO. The molecular weight of this inhibitor was estimated to be 500-600 by gel filtration. This inhibitor was proved to be heat-stable resistant to protease treatment. IMMO for 2 h significantly decreased MAO. These results suggest that this inhibitor is induced by IMMO. MAO activity in rat liver might be regulated by the level of this inhibitor.
