title: [Determination of the activity of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase in the differentiated 3T3-F442A cells by enzyme-linked spectrophotometric assay].
abstract: In order to probe into the patho-physiology semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO), we determined the variation of its activity in the days of 3T3-F442A cells' differentiation into adipocytes in vitro. The differentiated 3T3-F442A cells were collected in various days and disrupted by ultrasonication. Then we studied the SSAO activity of the collected cells by oxidase-linked spectrophotometric assay. In the course of 3T3-F442A cells' differentiation, SSAO expression was shown by a curve graph. There was no SSAO detected in 3T3-F442A preadipocyte, and only a little of SSAO was detected in the cells on the 3rd day of differentiation. Since then, SSAO significantly increased and reached to a maximum level six or seven days after the cells' differentiation.
