PARAOXONASE AND ARYLESTERASE ACTIVITY AMONG HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIC PATIENTS
Human serum paraoxonase (PON) associated with high density lipoprotein (HDL) , has been postulated to have a role in protecting low-density lipoprotein (LDL) against oxidative damage, which has led to the proposal that PON is an anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory enzyme. It has genetic polymorphism at the 191 (R ->Q) and two alloenzymes A and B and three phenotypes A, B, and AB. We exa...
متن کاملParaoxonase 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 کاملParaoxonase 1 phenotype and paraoxonase activity in asthmatic patients.
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of asthma. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and arylesterase are esterase enzymes displaying antioxidant characteristics. PON1 activity varies widely among individuals and ethnic groups, partly related to polymorphisms. The aim of this study was to determine the activities of PON1 and arylesterase including the phenotype distribution of PON1 in asthmatic pat...
متن کاملSerum paraoxonase 1 activity in patients with iron deficiency anemia
INTRODUCTION In this study we aimed to detect paraoxonase 1 (PON-1) activity in iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and to compare it with healthy controls by observing the change after iron therapy. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this study, 50 adult patients with IDA and 40 healthy subjects were enrolled. All patients were analyzed at the beginning and after treatment according to laboratory assessments....
متن کاملDiminished serum paraoxonase activity in patients with coronary artery calcification.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown an association between paraoxonase (PON) activity and the presence and severity of coronary atherosclerosis. AIM To demonstrate any association between serum PON activity and the presence and severity of coronary artery calcification (CAC). METHODS A total of 156 consecutive patients having the suspicion of coronary atherosclerosis or needing risk stra...
