Trimethylaminuria (TMAU), also known as fish odor syndrome or fish malodor syndrome, [1] is a rare metabolic disorder that causes a defect in the normal production of an enzyme named flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3).
[13] [14] Genetic deficiencies of the FMO3 enzyme cause primary trimethylaminuria, also known as "fish odor syndrome". [8] [15] FMO3 is also involved in the metabolism of many xenobiotics (i.e., exogenous compounds which are not normally present in the body), [9] [10] such as the oxidative deamination of amphetamine.

Trimethylaminuria (TMAU), also known as fish odor syndrome or fish malodor syndrome, is a rare metabolic disorder where trimethylamine is released in the person's sweat, urine, and breath, giving off a strong fishy odor or strong body odor. [58]
Dimethylaniline monooxygenase [N-oxide-forming] 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FMO1 gene. [5]Metabolic N-oxidation of the diet-derived amino-trimethylamine (TMA) is mediated by flavin-containing monooxygenase and is subject to an inherited FMO3 polymorphism in humans resulting in a small subpopulation with reduced TMA N-oxidation capacity resulting in fish odor syndrome ...
Dimethylaniline monooxygenase [N-oxide-forming] 5 is an enzyme in humans encoded by the FMO5 gene. [5] [6] [7]Metabolic N-oxidation of the diet-derived amino-trimethylamine (TMA) is mediated by flavin-containing monooxygenase and is subject to an inherited FMO3 polymorphism in man resulting in a small subpopulation with reduced TMA N-oxidation capacity resulting in fish odor syndrome ...
A new study has shown that exposure to a fishy smell can make people more suspicious, raising their level of critical thinking skills. Fishy smell shown to boost critical thinking in humans Skip ...
No one likes a fishy smell, but it may actually have a positive impact on people's brains. A recent study has found that it can improve critical thinking by arousing suspicion. To test the odor's ...
“The most common cause of vaginal odor is an imbalance in the normal flora in the vagina,” which causes a fishy odor, irritation, and thin to no vaginal discharge, says Dr. Streicher.
