Popis: | The effects were examined of four metabolites of the anticancer agent, procarbazine (N-isopropyl-α-(2−methyl hydrazino)-p-toluamide hydrochloride) on semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) and monoamine oxidase-A and -B (MAO-A and -B) activities in rat brown adipose tissue and liver homogenates, respectively. Azoprocarbazine (AZO) and monomethylhydrazine (MMH) inhibited selectively the deamination of benzylamine by SSAO, when compared with their effects on MAO activities. The IC50 values against SSAO, of 32·7 Nm (AZO) and 7·0 Nm (MMH), were more than three orders of magnitude lower than those exhibited against MAO. Neither isomer of azoxyprocarbazine was an effective inhibitor of rat amine oxidase activities. The inhibition of SSAO by AZO was reversed very slowly by dialysis, in contrast to results seen for MMH. The non-competitive kinetics of MMH and the ability of B24, a rapidly reversible SSAO inhibitor, to protect SSAO against inhibition by MMH are consistent with the view that this compound binds to the enzyme cofactor at, or near, the active site. |
