“…On the other hand, sevoflurane anesthesia, which is not a direct inhibitor of MAO, decreased deuterated L-[ 11 C]deprenyl uptake in non-human primate brain by 80%, which is certainly consistent with some novel regulation of MAO-B availability (Varnäs, 2021). Hormones may also play a role here; testosterone treatment for gender dysphoria slightly decreased (−10%) the [ 11 C]harmine binding in human brain (Kranz, 2021).…”

“…In contrast, in a prior analysis of MAO-A density after GHT performed by our group, we found statistically significant reductions of MAO-A V T in six of twelve previously defined regions of interest in TM after GHT for at least 4 months. These regions included the middle frontal cortex (−10%), anterior cingulate cortex (−9%), medial cingulate cortex (−10.5%), insula (−8%), amygdala (−9%) and hippocampus (−8.5%, all p<0.05)) (33). Of note, in the study by Kranz et al regional MAOA V T was estimated based on a priori defined regions-of-interest (ROIs) from a modified AAL atlas (33, 82), whereas here, MAO-A analysis was performed in regions that showed significant GMD and GMM changes after GHT.…”
