Occurrence of immune thrombocytopenic purpura in a patient with essential thrombocythemia: How the immune system can overcome a neoplastic clone
Our case highlights the possible coexistence of essential thrombocythemia (ET) and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), two pathological entities with opposite clinical and laboratory manifestations. It also underlines how an autoimmune attack has been temporarily able to overcome a neoplastic clone
Inhibition of lentil copper/TPQ amine oxidase by the mechanism-based inhibitor derived from tyramine
Copper amine oxidase from lentil (Lens esculenta) seedlings was shown to catalyze the oxidative deamination of tyramine and three similar aromatic monoamines, benzylamine, phenylethylamine and 4-methoxyphenylethylamine. Tyramine, an important plant intermediate, was found to be both a substrate and an irreversible inhibitor of the enzyme whereas the other amines were not inhibitory. In the course of tyramine oxidation the enzyme gradually became inactivated with the concomitant appearance of a new absorption at 560 nm due to the formation of a stable adduct. Inactivation took place only in the presence of oxygen and was probably due to the reaction of the enzyme with the oxidation product of tyramine, p-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde. The kinetic data obtained in this study indicate that tyramine represents a new interesting type of physiological mechanism-based inhibitor for plant copper amine oxidases

Inactivation took place only in the presence of oxygen and was probably due to the reaction of the enzyme with the oxidation product of tyramine, phydroxyphenylacetaldehyde. The kinetic data obtained in this study indicate that tyramine represents a new interesting type of physiological mechanismbased inhibitor for plant copper amine oxidases
