COMT (catechol-O-methyltransferase) helps break down certain neurotransmitters and catecholamines. These include dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. Catechol-O-methyltransferase is important to the areas of the pre-frontal cortex. This area of the brain is involved with personality, inhibition of behaviors, short-term memory, and planning. While abstract thinking, and emotion. COMT is also involved with metabolizing estrogens. COMT catalyzes the transfer of the methyl-group from SAM to catecholamine substrates. Like L-DOPA, dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine.
COMT individuals can usually break down these neurotransmitters efficiently. But some COMT individuals may have trouble breaking these chemicals down from impaired function of the enzyme. With a positive COMT status, it has been clinically observed by physicians. Those people may have trouble with methyl donors. This can lead to irritability, hyperactivity, or abnormal behavior. They may also be more sensitive to pain. COMT mutations slow the activity of the COMT enzyme which slows dopamine causing dopamine excess of imbalances.
COMT is also important in the detoxification of xenobiotics and metabolism of catechol drugs. COMTV158 is associated with a 3-4 x reduction or increase in activity and increased reaction to heat.
COMT V158M + H62H heterozygous is associated with low or high catecholamines.
V158M + H62H homozygous is associated with high catecholamines and excess estrogen.
In patients with typical symptoms of histamine intolerance that are triggered by histamine-rich food and alcohol, with intolerance of drugs that liberate histamine or block DAO, and with a negative diagnosis of allergy or internal disorders, histamine intolerance should be considered. A histamine-free diet, if necessary, supported by antihistamines or the substitution of DAO, leads to an improvement of symptoms. However, further studies investigating histamine intolerance due to DBPC provocations are indispensable.
