Int J Neurosci 1993 May; 70(1-2):75-84 ABSTRACT Monoamine oxidase is an iron containing enzyme that exists as 2 isozymes, A and B, that have different affinities for various amines as substrates. The activity of monoamine oxidase helps to maintain neuron firing rates throughout the body within homeostatic limits.ther drugs that inhibit monoamine oxidase are used to treat patients with atypical depression, panic attacks or post traumatic stress syndrome. It is hypothesized that the emotions act as positive or negative reinforcers of behavior patterns that increase the probability of survival of the organism.
How MAOIs work. Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitor Antidepressants (MAOIs) work by binding with and stopping the activity of monoamine oxidase, an enzyme found throughout the body.Monoamine oxidase breaks down a number of chemicals made and used by the body and brain.AOIs also increase the amounts of other chemicals in the body and especially some chemicals which are found in food and other medications. Because they increase chemicals other than noradrenaline and serotonin MAOIs can have serious and dangerous side effects if you are not careful about certain foods and other drugs.
