Lithium alters the stereoselectivity of monoamine oxidase in rat brain.

D F Smith1.   

Abstract

The effects of lithium on monoamine oxidase (MAO) in rat brain were studied in the presence of each enantiomer of tranylcypromine [(+)- and (-)-TCP]. The (+)-enantiomer was 25 times more potent than its antipode as MAO inhibitor. Lithium enhanced the inhibitory effect of (-)-TCP on MAO, but it did not affect actions of the (+)-enantiomer. Moreover, lithium influenced the stereoselective index for MAO, which suggests that lithium altered conformational features of the enzyme.
