Methylene blue is a cationic thiazine dye that has diverse biological activities. It inhibits the catalytic function of inducible and constitutive nitric oxide synthases via oxidation of enzyme-bound ferrous iron. Methylene blue also inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO) and increases the activity of mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase (complex IV). In vivo, methylene blue stabilizes systemic circulation without increasing peripheral resistance, decreases lipid peroxidation, and reduces anoxic tissue injury in brain and heart in a porcine model of global ischemia and reperfusion injury. It inhibits...
