Abstract
The present study examined whether or not immobilization stress (IMMO)-inducible semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) inhibitor by separated gel filtration from 105,000g supernate in rat brain cytosol contribute to the dopamine (DA) efflux by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+) in the rat striatum. The isoelectric point (pI) value of this inhibitor was determined by isoelectric focusing (IEF)-gel electrophoresis to about 3.8. The application of IMMO-induced SSAO inhibitor (3μg) by IEF-gel electrophoresis increased DA efflux by MPP+ in rat striatum. These results suggest that IMMO-inducible endogenous SSAO inhibitor enhances DA efflux by MPP+.
