| Gene ID | 4128 |
| Gene Description | Monoamine oxidase A, a mitochondrial enzyme, catalyzes the degradation of monoamines. Studies show that increased expression of MAOA promotes prostate cancer metastasis by activating the Shh-IL6-RANKL signaling network. In addition, MAOA expression in adipose tissue macrophages is upregulated in aging, leading to the reduction of noradrenaline availability in adipose tissue. Decreased levels of noradrenaline contribute to the aging-related decline of catecholamine-induced lipolysis in adipocytes. Furthermore, sympathetic neuron–associated macrophages import and degrade norepinephrine via the transporter SLC6A2 and MAOA, respectively, and thus contribute to obesity. |
