Inhibitory effects of agmatine on monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity: Reconciling the discrepancies

Agmatine has been functionally characterized as an important hormone and co-neurotransmitter in mammals. Given its ability in binding Imidazoline sites, a regolatory site of monoaminoxydase, it has been suggested to be involved in many neurological aspects. However, its inhibitory effect on this enz...
