  2. Diamine oxidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamine_oxidase

    Diamine oxidase (DAO), also known "amine oxidase, copper-containing, 1" (AOC1), formerly called histaminase, [1] is an enzyme (EC 1.4.3.22) involved in the metabolism, oxidation, and inactivation of histamine and other polyamines such as putrescine or spermidine. The enzyme belongs to the amine oxidase (copper-containing) (AOC) family of amine ...

  3. Histamine intolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histamine_intolerance

    Histamine, a biogenic amine found in various food products, is frequently implicated as a potential instigator of a range of health issues. [1] These issues are often collectively referred to under the umbrella term "histamine intolerance", [1] formulated drawing parallels to "lactose intolerance", a condition resulting from lactase enzyme deficiency.

  4. D-amino acid oxidase - Wikipedia

    The genetic background of DAO involvement in schizophrenia is highly debated, and no compulsatory evidence has been found for DAO genes being strongly linked to schizophrenia. Although, the G72 gene, which reportedly encodes the D-amino acid oxidase activator, may be involved in the development of schizophrenia.

  5. Histamine N-methyltransferase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histamine_N-methyltransferase

    Histamine intolerance is a presumed set of adverse reactions to ingested histamine in food believed to be associated with flawed activity of DAO and HNMT enzymes. [56] This set of reactions include cutaneous reactions (such as itching, flushing and edema), gastrointestinal symptoms (such as abdominal pain and diarrhea), respiratory symptoms ...

  6. Food intolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_intolerance

    Food intolerance is a detrimental reaction, often delayed, to a food, beverage, food additive, or compound found in foods that produces symptoms in one or more body organs and systems, but generally refers to reactions other than food allergy. Food hypersensitivity is used to refer broadly to both food intolerances and food allergies.

  7. Histamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histamine

    People with genotypes for reduced DAO activity can avoid foods high in histamine, such as alcohol, fermented foods, and aged foods, to attenuate any allergic reactions. Additionally, they should be aware whether any probiotics they are taking contain any histamine-producing strains and consult with their doctor to receive proper support ...

  8. Angioedema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angioedema

    The version related to histamine is due to an allergic reaction to agents such as insect bites, foods, or medications. [1] The version related to bradykinin may occur due to an inherited problem known as C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency, medications known as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or a lymphoproliferative disorder. [1]

    Most individuals with G6PD deficiency are asymptomatic.When it induces hemolysis, it is usually is short-lived. [5]Most people who develop symptoms are male, due to the X-linked pattern of inheritance, but female carriers can be affected due to unfavorable lyonization or skewed X-inactivation, where random inactivation of an X-chromosome in certain cells creates a population of G6PD-deficient ...
