Difference between Monoamine oxidase and Vanillylmandelic acid

Monoamine oxidase vs. Vanillylmandelic acid

L-Monoamine oxidases (MAO) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of monoamines. Vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) is a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of artificial vanilla flavorings and is an end-stage metabolite of the catecholamines, epinephrine, and norepinephrine.

Similarities between Monoamine oxidase and Vanillylmandelic acid

Monoamine oxidase and Vanillylmandelic acid have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adrenaline, Catecholamine, Homovanillic acid, Metanephrine, Norepinephrine, Normetanephrine.

Adrenaline

Adrenaline, also known as adrenalin or epinephrine, is a hormone, neurotransmitter, and medication.

Catecholamine

A catecholamine (CA) is a monoamine, an organic compound that has a catechol (benzene with two hydroxyl side groups at carbons 1 and 2) and a side-chain amine.

Homovanillic acid

Homovanillic acid (HVA) is a major catecholamine metabolite that is produced by a consecutive action of monoamine oxidase and catechol-O-methyltransferase on dopamine.

Metanephrine

Metanephrine (metadrenaline) is a metabolite of epinephrine (adrenaline) created by action of catechol-O-methyl transferase on epinephrine.

Norepinephrine

Norepinephrine (NE), also called noradrenaline (NA) or noradrenalin, is an organic chemical in the catecholamine family that functions in the brain and body as a hormone and neurotransmitter.

Normetanephrine

Normetanephrine is a metabolite of norepinephrine created by action of catechol-O-methyl transferase on norepinephrine.
