Human platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) [EC 1.4.3.4] preferentially deaminated benzylamine and phenylethylamine, 2 substrates relatively specific for type B MAO, in comparison to 5-hydroxytryptamine, a substrate specific for type A MAO. In studies comparing human platelet and rat brain MAO specific activities, benzylamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine deamination by platelets was approximately 90 and 2%, respectively, that of brain, while platelet deamination of dopamine, tryptamine and tyramine was 20% or less than that of brain. Among 16 drugs studied, platelet MAO activity was selectively inhibited by low concentrations of the MAO-B inhibitors, deprenyl and pargyline, and was relatively insensitive to the MAO-A inhibitors, clorgyline and Lilly 51641 [N-[2-(o-chlorophenoxy)ethyl]cyclopropylamine hydrochloride]. These observations, in addition to the simple sigmoid inhibition curves obtained with increasing concentrations of either clorgyline or deprenyl, suggest that platelet MAO consists of essentially 1 distinguishable form of MAO which most closely resembles the MAO type B found in other tissues.
