Is Paraoxonase Related to Atherosclerosis

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 1993
Human serum paraoxonase is responsible for the hydrolysis of organophosphate anticholinesterases, however, whether the enzyme has a physisological role other than the detoxication of insecticides and nerve gases has remained uncertain. Recently, evidence

Paraoxonase 1 and homocysteine metabolism

Amino Acids, 2012
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1), a component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), is a calcium-dependent multifunctional enzyme that connects metabolisms of lipoproteins and homocysteine (Hcy). Both PON1 and Hcy have been implicated in human diseases, including atherosclerosis and neurodegeneration.

Targeting paraoxonase-1 in atherosclerosis

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 2013
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a Ca(2+) dependent, high-density lipoprotein-associated lactonase which is capable of retarding/inhibiting low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. LDL oxidation is believed to be central to the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis, therefore, PON1 is considered to be atheroprotective.Relevant literature on PON1 was ...

Paraoxonase 1 and HDL maturation

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2015
Understanding the kinetics and function of paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is becoming an important issue in atherosclerosis. Low PON1 activity has been consistently linked with an increased risk of major cardiovascular events in the setting of secondary prevention of coronary artery disease.

Paraoxonase 1 and atherosclerosis‐related diseases

BioFactors, 2019
AbstractA direct and an indirect relationship between paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and atherosclerosis exists. Given PON1's physical location within high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) particles and its recognized enzyme activity, it is certainly reasonable to suggest that PON1 facilitates the antiatherogenic nature of HDL particles.

RELATIONSHIP OF ADIPONECTIN TO SERUM PARAOXONASE 1

Atherosclerosis Supplements, 2008
Correlation of the plasma levels of insulin-sensitizing, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic adiponectin with HDL has been demonstrated. However, its relation to HDL-bound paraoxonase 1 (PON1) has not been clarified. The association of serum PON1 activity with findings of metabolic syndrome was investigated in three age and sex-matched groups ...

Paraoxonase 1 Mutations in a Turkish Population

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1999
Human serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of certain organophosphate pesticides and nerve gases and so may alter significantly an individual's susceptibility to the toxicity of these chemicals. Moreover, PON1 hydrolyzes lipid peroxides complexed to low density lipoproteins (LDL) and therefore it was suggested that PON1 may be one of the

Variation in paraoxonase-1 activity and atherosclerosis

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2009
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an HDL-associated protein of 354 amino acids with a molecular mass of 43 000 Da. It is synthesized in the liver, and in serum it is almost exclusively associated with HDL. PON1 has been reported to be an important contributor to the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of HDL.

Systemic Inflammation, Intestine, and Paraoxonase-1

2014
Serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) has been shown to act as an important guardian against cellular damage from oxidized lipids in low-density lipoprotein (LDL), plasma membrane, against toxic agents such as pesticide residues including organophosphates and against bacterial endotoxin.

Paraoxonase 1: Genetics and Activities During Aging

Rejuvenation Research, 2008
The increasing longevity of the population, one of the most important issues throughout the planet, is a very complex phenomenon (trait), likely resulting from a variety of environmental determinants interacting with and modulated by genetic mechanisms, mostly devoted to maintenance and repair. In fact, the genes involved in longevity impact upon basic
