Mitochondrial MAO Enzyme May Contribute to Oxidative Stress in Hyperammonemia!

brain mitochondrial MAO-A is regulated by the function of NMDA receptors. The enzyme can contribute to the oxidative stress associated with hyperammonemic conditions such as encephalopathy and Alzheimer’s disease.

CiteULike: Brain monoamine oxidase A in hyperammonemia is regulated by NMDA receptors: "Kosenko, E. and Kaminsky, Y. (2009). Brain monoamine oxidase a in hyperammonemia is regulated by nmda receptors. Central European Journal of Biology, 4(3):321-326."
