RUSHING, PA, SE WINDERS, SL WATSON, RC KLESGES. Acute administration of phenylpropanolamine fails to affect resting energy expenditure in men of normal weight. Studies have consistently found that dieters using over-the-counter weight control products containing phenylpropanolamine (PPA) are more successful at losing weight than those who do not. To explore the possibility that drug-induced metabolic changes contribute to weight loss associated with this compound, this study investigated the effects of PPA on resting metabolic rate in 20 healthy men of normal weight between the ages of 18 and 29. After the arrival of the subjects to the laboratory, blood pressure was taken and resting energy expenditure (REE) and respiratory quotient (RQ) were assessed for 20 minutes (Baseline) via indirect calorimetry. Half of the subjects were then given 75 mg of immediate-release PPA (administered orally via a gelatin capsule), while the other half received placebo. Immediately after drug administration, metabolic rate was measured for an additional 95 minutes (During Drug). After this assessment, blood pressure was again measured. Although significant increases in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were observed after PPA administration, the drug had no effect on REE or RQ. These results, consistent with that previously reported in mildly overweight women, further establish that it is unlikely that drug-induced metabolic changes contribute to PPA-induced weight loss in humans.  相似文献

Functional groups of mitochondrial monoamine oxidase critical for monoamine oxidase activity were investigated by chemical modification of highly purified monoamine oxidase preparations from pig liver by specific inhibitors. The substrate and inhibitory properties of synthesized derivatives of beta-phenylethylamine, containing various acylating and alkylating groups in the p-position of the benzene ring, were studied. It was shown that 4-carbmethoxy-beta-phenylethylamine (I) is readily deaminated by monoamine oxidase, whereas 4-O-acetyl-beta-phenylethylamine (II) is not affected by the enzyme. 4-O-acetyl-beta-phenylethylamine (II) and 4-ethyl-O-chloroacethyl phenol (III) inhibit deamination of tyramine, 4-amino-beta-phenylethylamine, beta-phenylethylamine, 4-chloro-beta-phenylethylamine and serotonin in different degrees. The kinetic studies demonstrated that this inhibition is probably due to the acylating properties of the compounds obtained. Selectivity in inhibition may be accounted for by acylation of the group of monoamine oxidase which is located in the nearest proximity to the nucleophynoamine oxidase which is located in the nearest proximity to the nucleophylic site of monoamine oxidase active centre important for binding of tyramine. This group is neither the imidazole group of histidyl, nor the SH-group of cysteinyl residues of monoamine oxidase protein molecule. Its nature is discussed in the light of the data obtained.  相似文献

Centrifugation of monoamine oxidase preparations from bovine liver mitochondria in sucrose gradients enabled the removal of most of the iron containing impurities without loss of catalytic activity. The nonheme iron content of the enzyme purified with a gradient was found to be not more than 5%, and the total iron not more than 25% of the flavin content of the enzyme. Thus, iron is not a component of monoamine oxidase. Most of the iron present was in the form of cytochrome impurities, the presence of which, in less pure preparations, obscured the observation of a red semiquinone formed on reduction of the enzyme with sodium dithionite. This semiquinone was not found on substrate reduction.  相似文献

CI-906 and CI-907, new orally active nonsulfhydryl angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, were examined for antihypertensive effects in unanesthetized hypertensive rats and dogs. In two-kidney, one-clip Goldblatt hypertensive rats, single oral daily doses (0.03-30 mg/kg) produced dose-dependent decreases in blood pressure; a single 3 mg/kg oral dose lowered blood pressure to normotensive levels. In spontaneously hypertensive rats, 30 mg/(kg X day) orally administered for 5 consecutive days achieved the same blood pressure decrease as that obtained on the first day in the renal hypertensive rats. In diuretic-pretreated renal hypertensive dogs, a 10 mg/kg oral dose decreased blood pressure by 25%. No adverse side effects were observed with CI-906 and CI-907 in any of the conscious animals. These studies indicate that CI-906 and CI-907 are potent, orally active antihypertensive agents without any apparent limiting side effects.  相似文献

Intra-arterial ambulatory blood pressure was measured over 24 hours, in 34 patients with newly diagnosed hypertension, both before and after double-blind randomisation to treatment with atenolol (n=9), metoprolol (n=9), pindolol (n=9), or propranolol in its slow-release form (n=7). The dosage of each drug was adjusted at monthly clinic visits until satisfactory control of blood pressure was achieved (140/90 mm Hg or less by cuff) or the maximum dose in the study protocol was reached. A second intra-arterial recording was made after these drugs had been taken once daily at 0800 for three to eight months (mean 5·0±SD 1·4) and was started four hours after the last dose.At the end of the 24-hour recordings blood pressure was significantly lower with all four drugs. The extent to which the drugs reduced blood pressure, however, differed over the 24 hours. Atenolol lowered mean arterial pressure significantly throughout all 24 recorded hours, metoprolol for 12 hours, pindolol for 15 hours, and slow-release propranolol for 22 hours. Neither metoprolol nor pindolol lowered blood pressure during sleep. A significant reduction in heart rate was observed over 20 hours with atenolol, 20 hours with metoprolol, 10 hours with pindolol, and 24 hours with slow-release propranolol. Atenolol, metoprolol, and slow-release propranolol continued to slow the heart rate 24 hours after the last tablet was taken; this effect on heart rate, however, was not sustained throughout the second morning in those patients taking atenolol. Pindolol, the only drug studied that has intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, increased heart rate and did not lower blood pressure during sleep.Atenolol and slow-release propranolol are effective as antihypertensive agents over 24 hours when taken once daily, whereas metoprolol and pindolol may need to be taken more frequently. At times of low sympathetic tone, however, such as during sleep, beta-blockers with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity may raise heart rate and attenuate the fall in blood pressure with treatment.  相似文献

The acute administration of the monoamine oxidase inhibitor iproniazid to rats causes a highly significant suppression of serum prolactin levels at 2 h. At the same time there is a significant rise in the hypothalamic-median eminence concentrations of the biogenic monoamines dopamine, noradrenaline and serotonin. When iproniazid is administered daily to rats for 4 days and the animals are examined on the fifth day brain noradrenaline and serotonin levels are elevated similarly to those seen after acute administration but dopamine concentration is near normal while serum prolactin is significantly elevated. This study thus demonstrates that a quite specific and unexpected change occurs in the regulation of hypothalamic-median eminence dopamine when iproniazid is administered chronically and provides an explanation of previous observations in human subjects where raised serum prolactin levels are observed after chronic therapy with monoamine oxidase inhibitors.  相似文献

The conjugated derivatives--1.4-dinitrobutene-2, 1,4-dinitro-2-methylbutene-2, 1,4-dinitro-2,3-diphenylbutene-2 sodium salts, as well as dinitromethane sodium salt and beta-nitrostyrol, the inhibitors of oxidative deamination of serotonin, tyramine, tryptamine and benzylamine in bovine liver mitochondria, were studied. All the derivatives under study were found to be active inhibitors of monoamine oxidase catalyzing the oxidative deamination of serotonin, tyramine and tryptamine. In a far lesser degree these preparations inhibited the deamination of benzylamine, a specific substrate for monoamine oxidase B. All the dinitrocompound dianions, with the exception of 1,4-dinitro-2,3-diphenylbutene-2 disodium salt, a non-competitive inhibitor of oxidative deamination of the four substrates under study, cause competitive reversible inhibition of monoamine oxidase.  相似文献

The effect of riboflavin on development of hypertension in rats given a high salt diet was studied. Large doses of riboflavin prevented both elevation of blood pressure and rise of cholesterol levels in the serum. The increase in liver monoamine oxidase activity of the rats fed riboflavin was confirmed.  相似文献

Infusion of aldehyde such as acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde or benzaldehyde to perfused rat liver leads to an increase in hepatic ethane production. Half-maximal effect was obtained with about 20 microM acetaldehyde, a concentration range found in plasma during ethanol metabolism. Compounds which metabolically generate aldehydes such as monoamines (benzylamine, phenylethylamine) as substrates for monoamine oxidase or ethanol as substrate for alcohol dehydrogenase [A. Müller and H. Sies (1982) Biochem. J. 206, 153-156] are also able to elicit ethane release. Results obtained with inhibitors of hepatic aldehyde metabolism (pargyline or cyanamide) or of monamine oxidase (pargyline or tranylcypromine) suggest that metabolism of the aldehydes is required for ethane production. Radical scavenging by the addition of the flavonoid, cyanidanol, or by pretreatment with vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) abolished ethane release, in agreement with lipid peroxidation as a source of alkane production during aldehyde metabolism.  相似文献

The activity of monamine oxidase, an enzyme located almost exclusively at the outer mitochondrial membrane, toward the substrate phenylethylamine is used to report the oxygen pressure at the outer mitochondrial membrane of intact cardiac myocytes isolated from hearts of adult rats. The rate of substrate oxidation, under the conditions used, follows the Michaelis-Menten relation, and accordingly can be used as a measure of the local chemical activity of dissolved oxygen. The oxygen pressure at the outer mitochondrial membrane of myocytes, at rest and after 2- to 3-fold stimulation of respiratory oxygen consumption, differs from the extracellular oxygen pressure by at most 2 torr. This implies that most of the large, about 20 torr, difference in oxygen pressure between capillary lumen and mitochondria of the working heart must be extracellular. At physiologically relevant concentrations of the substrates phenylethylamine and norepinephrine, monoamine oxidase activity is relatively insensitive to extracellular oxygen pressure in the range 155 to 8 torr, suggesting a limited role for regulation of biogenic amine oxidation by oxygen availability.  相似文献

CGP 6085 A [4-(5,6-dimethyl-2-benzofuranyl)piperidine] HCl, a known serotonin inhibitor, also inhibits rat brainstem monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) in both in vivo and in vitro experiments. Serotonin (5-HT) deamination by MAO-A is inhibited 35% at a dose of 100 mg/kg i.p. in vivo. Similar experiments show a maximal 20% decrease in phenylethylamine (PEA) deamination by MAO-B at a dosage of 30 mg/kg i.p. Over the range of 0.1 to 10 mg/kg i.p., CGP 6085 A decreases 5-HIAA levels in the brainstem. This in vivo inhibition of MAO activity is confirmed by in vitro experiments. In vitro studies in rat brainstem mitochondrial preparations show a dose-dependent, reversible, inhibition of MAO using tyramine as the substrate for the enzyme reaction. With an in vitro IC50 of 2-3 microM, the potency of CGP 6085 A is comparable to pargyline.  相似文献

(−)-Deprenyl, 0.05, 1.0, 2.0, and 10.0 mg/kg body weight, was administered intraperitonially to Wistar rats for 30 days. The activity of acetylcholinesterase, and monoamine oxidase A and B were assayed in different brain regions. After the experimental period acetyl cholinesterase activity was found to be significantly increased in frontal cortex [P<0.001] and hippocampus [P<0.001] but not in striatum and brainstem at 0.1, 1.0, and 2.0 mg/kg dose, the maximum increase being at 0.1 mg/kg dose. Monoamine oxidase B activity was inhibited by more than 90% at 1.0, 2.0, and 10.0 mg/kg dose while 0.05 and 0.1 dose inhibited only about 55% and 70% respectively. Monoamine oxidase A activity was inhibited to more than 70% at 1.0 mg dose and to more than 90% at 2.0 and 10.0 mg/kg dose. At 0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg dose monoamine oxidase A activity was not significantly altered.  相似文献

单胺氧化酶(monoamine oxidase,MAO)是人体内天然存在的一种酶,催化单胺类物质氧化脱氨反应的酶。人体内含有两种单胺氧化酶:单胺氧化酶A和单胺氧化酶B。单胺氧化酶A主要分布在儿茶酚胺能神经元中;单胺氧化酶B主要分布在5-羟色胺能神经元、组胺能神经元和神经胶质细胞中,这两种亚型都均可以使单胺类神经递质失活。而单胺氧化酶抑制剂则能够通过抑制单胺氧化酶的对单胺类物质的氧化活性,从而达到减轻或者消除由各种原因引起的单胺类物质减少或单胺氧化酶活性过高导致的疾病。本文主要总结了近几年单胺氧化酶抑制剂在临床上用于治疗帕金森病、抑郁症和幽门螺旋杆菌方面的最新进展。  相似文献

The in vivo luminescence of an aldehyde-requiring mutant of the luminous bacteria Vibrio harveyi (M42) increases dramatically upon the addition of long-chain aliphatic aldehydes (C8-C16). The intensity of this luminescence is linearly related to aldehyde concentration. This property was utilized for the determination of monoamine oxidase activity using n-octylamine and n-decylamine as substrates, which are converted by monoamine oxidase to n-octylaldehyde and n-decylaldehyde, respectively. The addition of the amine to a suspension containing rat liver mitochondria and M42 cells initiated a luminescence that was directly proportional to monoamine oxidase activity according to two parameters: (1) the rate of the initial increase in luminescence and (2) the final "steady-state" level of luminescence. The new assay has advantages of high sensitivity, rapidity, the possibility to perform discontinuous as well as continuous monitoring of monoamine oxidase activity, and applicability to turbid preparations.  相似文献

The activities of mitochondrial type A and B monoamine oxidase were determined in the liver of rats fed a diet containing 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF). Three days after the initiation of AAF-feeding, there was a significant decrease of type B monoamine oxidase activity without affect on type A enzyme. The decreased activity of type B monoamine oxidase, which reached a minimum after three weeks, was sustained for as long as AAF-feeding was continued. Sex-related difference in response to AAF was seen in the rat with respect to the onset and the intensity of the decreased type B monoamine oxidase activity, male rats being more sensitive to the carcinogen than female rats. In contrast to the in vivo effect, AAF showed a potent inhibitory effect on type A monoamine oxidase, rather than on type B enzyme, when added in vitro. The pI50 values were estimated to be 7.5 against type A monoamine oxidase and 4.1 against type B enzyme, respectively. The in vitro inhibition of both types of monoamine oxidase by AAF was competitive. The Ki values for AAF were calculated to be 9.51 · 10?9 M for type A monoamine oxidase and 1.30 · 10?5 M for type B enzyme, respectively. In accordance with the potent inhibitory effect of AAF on type A monoamine oxidase in vitro, a single administration of the carcinogen, at a dose of 50 mg/kg, resulted in a marked and temporal decrease of the enzyme activity in the mitochondria of male rat liver. Recovery of the decreased type B monoamine oxidase activity was slow, and the enzyme activity did not return to control levels, even if rats were fed the basal diet for 2 or 4 weeks after the cessation of AAF-feeding.  相似文献

The distribution of dihydropteridine reductase between soluble and particulate fractions in synaptosomes parallels that of lactate dehydrogenase, but not monoamine oxidase. Ki and I50 values for inhibitors obtained with the enzyme-rich P2 fraction and its twice-washed fraction (P2W2) were essentially the same, and were similar to those obtained with highly purified human liver enzyme. Dihydropteridine reductase inhibitory potency of multi-ring compounds containing a catechol-moiety was greater than that of single ring catecholic compounds, which in turn was greater than that of p-hydroxy-phenolic compounds. The P2 fraction of rat striatal synaptosomal preparations may serve as a convenient source of dihydropteridine reductase for studying the inhibition of this enzyme.  相似文献

The effects of hydralazine formulation and dose interval were assessed in 20 patients with hypertension well controlled on conventional hydralazine tablets, 100 mg twice daily, in addition to atenolol and a diuretic. The double-blind study used four regimens crossed over in random order at five-week intervals; placebo; conventional hydralazine 100 mg twice daily; conventional hydralazine 200 mg once daily; and slow-release hydralazine 200 mg once daily. Blood pressure and pulse rate were assessed soon after (2.5 +/- 0.9 h) and immediately before taking hydralazine (previous dose: once daily, 26.5 +/- 0.9 h; twice daily, 13.6 +/- 2.0 h). Seventeen patients completed the study. All hydralazine regimens were associated with significant falls in blood pressure. Once-daily treatment with conventional hydralazine was unsatisfactory, as its hypotensive effect waned at 24 h; there was a significant difference between the peak and trough effects on blood pressure and pulse in rapid acetylators. Compared with placebo twice-daily conventional hydralazine and once-daily slow-release hydralazine gave satisfactory control for 24 hours in both rapid and slow acetylators, though the hypotensive effect was larger in the slow acetylators. It is concluded that there is no need to administer hydralazine more than twice daily.  相似文献

The enzyme systems in rat liver and lung responsible for the oxidative metabolism of hydrazine derivatives were studied to determine whether these enzymes, cytochrome P-450 and monoamine oxidase, were responsible for metabolically activating hydrazines to carcinogenic/toxic metabolites. Cytochrome P-450 preferentially oxidized the nitrogen to nitrogen bond of 1,2-disubstituted hydrazines and hydrazides, while monoamine oxidase oxidized the nitrogen to nitrogen bond of all the classes of hydrazine derivatives that were tested. Oxidation of the nitrogen to nitrogen bond led to the formation of stable azo intermediates in the case of 1,2-disubstituted hydrazines and to unstable monoazo (diazene) metabolites in the case of monosubstituted hydrazines and hydrazides. In addition, cytochrome P-450 preferentially oxidized the carbon to nitrogen bond of monoalkylhydrazines; this reaction resulted in the formation of aldehyde metabolites (via hydrazone intermediates). Monosubstituted hydrazines were shown to be potent, irreversible inhibitors of mitochondrial monoamine oxidase. In contrast, the 1,2-disubstituted hydrazines appeared to be good substrates for the monoamine oxidase and served as competitive inhibitors at high concentrations. There did not appear to be any monoamine oxidase isozyme (form A or B) specificity in the metabolism of either the 1,2-disubstituted hydrazines or the monoalkylhydrazines, ethyl- and n-propylhydrazine.  相似文献
