> OK, so monoamine oxydase (MAO) is a little fellow who scurries around with a little broom to sweep up all the used neurotransmitters after they've delivered their messages. MAOIs stop the production of MAO, so the neurotransmitters stick around in the synapse and repeat their messages.What a great way to explain that! You should write science books for young people...
