Abstract:
:New methods for determination of specific concentration and molecular activity of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in platelets are described and evaluated in parallel with specific activity measures, performed in whole platelets and platelet extracts. Platelet MAO specific concentration is determined in platelet extracts by a radioimmunoassay, using a monoclonal antibody that recognizes human MAO B, the form that occurs in platelets, but not MAO A. All four platelet MAO measures are found to be reliable and stable, and thus are suitable for long-term comparisons of normal and clinical populations, such as those reported in Part II of this report. The new measures of enzyme concentration and molecular activity make available important information about the state of MAO B molecules in a given individual that reflects the genetic expression and control of the enzyme.
