Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Patients with Cancer
Background: Cancer has the highest disease-related mortality rate in Iran. Reduced activity of paraoxonase reported in patients with cancer may be due to a reduction in its antioxidant properties and a subsequent increased risk of developing cancer. We aimed to assess antioxidant and oxidative status in patients with cancer through measuring the activity of PON1 as an antioxidant enzyme and det...
متن کاملDecreased serum paraoxonase 1 activity and increased serum homocysteine and malondialdehyde levels in age-related macular degeneration.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the most common causes of vision loss. AMD has been classified into two forms: atrophic and exudative forms. The exudative form is associated with choroidal neovascularization of the subretinal macular region, resulting in a sudden loss of central vision. However, the exact cause of AMD remains unknown. Several risk factors have been postulated, ...
متن کاملParaoxonase-1 and arylesterase activities in patients with colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate paraoxonase-1 (PON1) and arylesterase (ARE) activities and oxidative stress status in patients with colorectal carcinomas (CRC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-three patients (20 male, 13 female) with CRC and 30 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. Blood samples were obtained from the CRC patients before adjuvant therapy. Serum samples fr...
متن کاملSerum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in hemodialysis patients.
Cardiac death from atherosclerosis is common in hemodialysis patients. Human serum paraoxonase (PON1), an esterase, is associated with high-density lipoprotein and inhibits the susceptibility to oxidization of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The PON1 genetic polymorphisms of 192 Gln/Arg and 55 Leu/Met in the amino acid sequence are partly involved in the PON1 enzyme activity. We investigated the...
متن کاملSerum Paraoxonase 1 Activity in Patients with Organophosphate Poisoning: A Potential Indicator of Prognosis
Background: Human serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) hydrolyzes organophosphate (OP) compounds and so significantly alters an individual’s susceptibility to the toxicity of these chemicals. The study was designed to assess the serum PON1 activity in a series of patients with OP poisoning. Methods: Suspected OP poisoning patients presented within 6 hours of...
