title: Inhibition of plant and mammalian diamine oxidases by hydrazine and guanidine compounds.
abstract: 1. Pig kidney and pea seedling diamine oxidases have similar sensitivity to methylhydrazine and phenylhydrazine as inhibitors. 2. Inhibition of pig kidney and pea seedling enzymes by hydrazine and guanidine compounds is time dependent. To reveal full inhibitory potency, methylhydrazine and aminoguanidine need longer preincubation with plant diamine oxidase as compared with mammalian diamine oxidase. 3. Impromidine, a known H2 histamine receptor agonist with guanidine and imidazole structures, and aminoguanidine have higher inhibitory activity towards pig kidney enzyme in comparison with the pea seedling one. 4. Impromidine inhibits pig kidney diamine oxidase in a noncompetitive manner. The Ki value is 6.6 muM. 5. The 24 hr dialysis of rat intestinal diamine oxidase preincubated with phenylhydrazine or impromidine only partially recovered the enzymic activities. 6. Impromidine inhibits mouse intestinal diamine oxidase in vivo.
