Characterization of peripheral blood lymphocytes in sarcoidosis.

abstract：:I(2) site-selective compounds are known to interact with and inhibit monoamine oxidase (MAO), but it remains unclear as to whether this interaction occurs through an allosteric or competitive interaction. This study used the new selective, irreversible I(2) ligand BU99006, to clarify the relationship between MAO and t...
