Diamine oxidase (DAO, histaminase) is a copper-containing enzyme that can break down histamine , putrescin and other biogenic amines . The enzyme is produced by all chordates . In humans, it is produced in the intestines , kidneys and placenta .

A lack of DAO is said to lead to so-called histamine intolerance . Controlled individual studies and a comprehensive meta-analysis from 2003 could show that healthy people are not affected by biogenic amines such as histamine in food.

A preparation with the ingredient diamine oxidase obtained from pig kidney extract is offered in capsule form, with the intended purpose "for the dietary treatment of histamine-related food intolerance " ( histamine intolerance ), but no DAO activity was found in it in scientific tests.

Diamine oxidase in pregnancy

DAO production increases sharply during pregnancy. Even dangerously high concentrations of histamine are broken down in blood plasma samples from pregnant women within a few minutes. This is due to specialized cells in the placenta, so-called extravillous trophoblasts , which express the enzyme in large quantities and release it into the mother's bloodstream. It is believed that the DAO protects mother and child from excessive histamine in this way, as this can lead to pregnancy complications. Decreased DAO values ​​in early pregnancy could be an indication of a trophoblast-associated pregnancy disorder such as B. the early onset preeclampsia .

Catalyzed reactions

As an example, the oxidation of histamine:

histamine+ H 2 O + O 2 + NH 3 + H 2 O 2 Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde
