Background & Aims Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA), a catecholamine neurotransmitter
degrading enzyme, is closely associated with neurological and psychiatric disorders.
However, its role in cancer progression remains unknown. Methods Hepatocellular

MAOA expression and clinicopathological findings. In vitro invasion and anoikis assays, and
in vivo intrahepatic and lung metastasis models were used to determine the role of MAOA in …
