Paraoxonase 1 and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Meta-Analysis
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathophysiology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, reliable biomarkers of NAFLD in relation to oxidative stress are not available.

Decreased serum arylesterase activity in autism spectrum disorders.
The PON1 gene, previously found associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), encodes a serum protein responsible for the detoxification of organophosphates (OPs) and able to exert several enzymatic activities.

Preferable stimulation of PON1 arylesterase activity by phosphatidylcholines with unsaturated acyl chains or oxidized acyl chains at sn-2 position [PDF]
To examine the effect of phospholipids on PON1 activities, purified PON1 was exposed to phospholipids prior to the determination of arylesterase and paraoxonase activities. Phosphatidylcholines with saturated acyl chains (C10–C16) showed a stimulation of

The relationship between serum ferritin levels and serum lipids and HDL function with respect to age and gender [PDF]
Elevated serum ferritin (SFer) levels have been associated with chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus type 2. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between SFer levels and serum lipid parameters, and how ...

Metal‐Dependent Effects and Crowding Robustness of Pseudomonas fluorescens Esterase I
Pseudomonas fluorescens esterase I retains catalytic activity in metal‐rich and crowded environments, despite metal‐specific inhibitory effects. These findings highlight its robustness for biocatalytic applications in complex environments. Industrial biocatalysts are strongly influenced by their physicochemical environment, yet systematic studies on ...

Unlocking Lactonase Enzymes as Biocatalysts for the Deracemisation of Chiral γ‐Thiolactones
The application of lactonase enzymes as biocatalysts still remains underexplored. This study discloses the biocatalytic activity of two lactonases in the deracemisation of chiral C3‐substituted‐γ‐thiolactones. The biocatalyst GcL catalyses the enzymatic kinetic resolution (EKR) of C3‐amide‐thiolactones, while the rationally engineered biocatalyst N9 ...

Multi‐omics profiling uncovers the effect of sex and mitochondrial‐haplotype on molecular fingerprints of aging in plasma. ABSTRACT The effect of mitochondrial‐haplotype (mt‐haplotype) on aging was studied using a unique rat model (OKC‐HETB/W), which has a heterogenous nuclear background combined with mitochondria from either Brown Norway (B‐haplotype)

Protein glycosylation in lung cancer from a mass spectrometry perspective
ABSTRACT Lung cancer is a severe disease for which better diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Increasing evidence implies that aberrant protein glycosylation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and progression of lung cancer.
