Английский Язык - Английский Язык
Either of two enzymes, found in the outer membrane of mitochondria, that degrade biogenic amines and are thus responsible for the destruction of transmitter substances at neuronal synapses
A chemical found in the brain which helps break down monoamines, a class of chemicals which include norepinephrine
An enzyme that breaks down certain neurotransmitters, including dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline
epinephrine and norepinephrine and serotonin
An enzyme in the cells of most tissues that catalyzes the oxidation of monoamines such as norepinephrine and serotonin
an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of many body compounds e
-the enzyme that breaks down dopamine, norepinephrine, and Epinephrine in synapses Two types are present, types A and B Certain drugs can inhibit the action of MAOs; these drugs are called MAO inhibitors
enzyme that deactivates certain neurotransmitters
an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of many body compounds (e g , epinephrine and norepinephrine and serotonin)
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of a large variety of monoamines, including epinephrine, norepinephrine, and serotonin; it is found in most tissues, particularly the liver and nervous system Drugs that act as inhibitors of this enzyme are widely used in the treatment of depression
mao
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
(MAOI) Affects nervous system and nerve function due to its ability to act as an antidepressant that block the action of monoamine oxidase (which destroys monoamines) and allow the accumulation of norepinephrine and serotonin (monoamines) Since some cases of depression are caused by decreased activity of norepinephrine and serotonin, blocking the destruction of them helps treat depression
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
MAOI Antidepressant that blocks the action of monoamine oxidase allowing the accumulation of monoamines such as norepinephrine and serotonin Since some cases of depression are caused by diminished activity of norepinephrine and serotonin, blocking the destruction of these neurotransmitters with the subsequent accumulation at the nerve endings helps treat depression
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
Any of a class of antidepressant drugs that block the action of monoamine oxidase in the brain, thereby allowing the accumulation of monoamines such as norepinephrine
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
any of a group of antidepressant drugs that inhibit the action of monoamine oxidase in the brain and so allow monoamines to accumulate
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
a type of drug used in the treatment of depressions It works by slowing up the breakdown of certain neurotransmitters
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
A drug that interferes with the action of monoamine oxidase, slowing the breakdown of certain neurotransmitters Used in the treatment of depression
monoamine oxidase inhibitor
A class of drugs which affect the work of the monoamine oxidase enzymes and thus produce an antidepressant effect Monoamine Oxidase enzymes include epinephrine, norepinephrine and serotonin
monoamine oxidases
plural form of monoamine oxidase
