Studies on human serum paraoxonase/arylesterase [PDF]
The complete amino acid sequence of human serum paraoxonase/arylesterase and the DNA sequence coding for that protein have recently been determined in two independent laboratories. There is now considerable evidence that the esterase exists in two genetically determined allozymic forms, and these A and B allozymes possess both paraoxonase and ...

Total oxidant status, total antioxidant status, and paraoxonase and arylesterase activities during laparoscopic cholecystectomy [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard for the treatment of gallstone disease; however, adverse hemodynamic changes induced by increased intraabdominal pressure due to pneumoperitoneum are known to occur.

A protocol for the assay of arylesterase activity in soil [PDF]
We set up a protocol for the assay of the arylesterase activity, using p-nitrophenyl acetate (p-NPA) as substrate, dimethylsulfoxide as solvent, modified universal buffer at pH 7.5, and determination of the reaction product (p-nitrophenol) after ...

Arylesterase Phenotype-Specific Positive Association Between Arylesterase Activity and Cholinesterase Specific Activity in Human Serum [PDF]
Context: Cholinesterase (ChE) specific activity is the ratio of ChE activity to ChE mass and, as a biomarker of exposure to cholinesterase inhibitors, has a potential advantage over simple ChE activity. Objective: To examine the association of several potential correlates (serum arylesterase/paraoxonase activity, serum albumin, sex, age, month of blood

Effects of PON1 QR192 genetic polymorphism and paraoxonase, arylesterase activities on deep vein thrombosis [PDF]
We aimed to evaluate PON1 QR192 polymorphism’s (rs662) effects on levels of triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, glucose, and c-reactive protein, and paraoxonase-arylesterase ...

Clinical and Genetic Association of Serum Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities With Cardiovascular Risk [PDF]
Objective—Diminished serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities (measures of paraoxonase-1 [PON-1] function) in humans have been linked to heightened systemic oxidative stress and atherosclerosis risk. The clinical prognostic use of measuring distinct

Decreased serum PON1 arylesterase activity in familial hypercholesterolemia patients with a mutated LDLR gene [PDF]
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a serum enzyme associated with high density lipoprotein (HDL) regulation through its paraoxonase and arylesterase activity. PON1 inhibits the oxidation of HDL and low density lipoprotein (LDL), and is involved in the pathogenesis ...
