Background
Membrane primary amine oxidase(AOC3); also known as vascular adhesion protein (VAP-1) and HPAO; this protein is a member of the semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) family. VAP-1 is a type 1 membrane-bound glycoprotein that has a distal adhesion domain and an enzymatically active amine oxidase site outside of the membrane; VAP-1 has adhesive properties; functional monoamine oxidase activity; and possibly plays a role in glucose handling; leukocyte trafficking; and migration during inflammation. This rise in metabolic products contributes to generating advanced glycation end-products and oxidative stress along with the monoamine detoxification in the organism. It is highly expressed on the endothelium of the lung and trachea; and absent from leukocytes and epithelial cells. Membrane-bound VAP-1 releases an active; soluble form of the protein; which may be conducive to increased inflammation and the progression of many vascular disorders. In particular; elevation of VAP-1 activity and the increased enzymatic-mediated deamination is proposed to play a role in renal and vascular disease; oxidative stress; acute and chronic hyperglycemia; and diabetes complications.
