[ 3 ] - THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OXIDATIVE STRESS AND THE ONSET OF CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE

Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles plays a key role in the etiology of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD). Oxidative stress enhances the likelihood of LDL oxidation and atherosclerotic plaque development. Paraoxonase (PONI) is an enzyme associated with HDL that metabolizes organophosphates and has antioxidant activity. In order to investigate the relationsh...
