title: Kinetics of the mechanism of action of monoamine oxidase in the regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase activity in rat brain.
abstract: Kinetic studies on the action of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in the regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase were performed using 3-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (MHB), which is an analogue of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxy-phenylacetylaldehyde (product of MAO-catalysed reaction with dopamine as substrate). It was observed that at 2.6 microM MHB, the activation of Na+,K+-ATPase may be the result of the removal of the inhibitory Ca2+, thereby increasing the Vmax. Double-reciprocal plots of Pi versus MHB showed that Ca2+ counteracted the effect of the aldehyde not by changing the Km, but be decreasing the Vmax of the Na+,K+-ATPase stimulation. The removal of 3',5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from the microsomes by sodium dodecyl sulphate treatment abolished the activation and/or inhibition of the Na+,K+-ATPase by aldehyde; it can therefore be inferred that 3',5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase is involved in the regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase.
