Paraoxonase-1 and clopidogrel efficacy [PDF]
Clopidogrel active thiol metabolite is formed through 1) a cytochrome P450 (CYP dependent oxidation to a thiolactone : 2-oxoclopidogrel. Then a second CYP dependent oxidation to a sulfenic acid which is reduced by excess glutathione to the active cis ...

Low Serum Paraoxonase-1 Lactonase and Arylesterase Activities in Obese Children and Adolescents
Serum paraoxonase-1 (PON1) binds mainly to high density lipoproteins (HDLs) and protects low density lipoproteins (LDLs) against oxidation. While paraoxonase and arylesterase activities are traditionally assayed, lactonase activity, accounting for ...

Paraoxonase 1 Activity and Survival in Sepsis Patients
Background: Sepsis is a state of augmented oxidative stress and diminished antioxidant capacity. High density lipoprotein (HDL) particles were shown to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as Paraoxonase 1 (PON1), which is an ...

Paraoxonase-1 and Early-Life Environmental Exposures
Acute and chronic exposures to widely used organophosphorus (OP) insecticides are common. Children's detoxification mechanisms are not well developed until several years after birth.

Paraoxonase 1 polymorphisms and survival [PDF]
The antioxidant enzyme paraoxonase 1 (PON1) has previously been suggested to confer protection against coronary heart disease (CHD), one of the main causes of death in the Western world. Two coding polymorphisms, 55M/L and 192Q/R, and a promoter variant, -107C/T, has been extensively studied with respect to susceptibility to CHD. In this study, we have

Paraoxonase 1 in neurological disorders [PDF]
Paroxonase 1 displays multiple physiological activities that position it as a putative player in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. Here we reviewed the literature focusing on the role of paraoxonase 1 (PON1) as a factor in the risk of stroke and the major neurodegenerative diseases.

Solubilization and Humanization of Paraoxonase-1 [PDF]
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a serum protein, the activity of which is related to susceptibility to cardiovascular disease and intoxication by organophosphorus (OP) compounds. It may also be involved in innate immunity, and it is a possible lead molecule in the development of a catalytic bioscavenger of OP pesticides and nerve agents.

Paraoxonase 1 status in the Thai population [PDF]
Human serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1), a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated enzyme, has been shown to reduce the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and HDL by degrading lipid peroxides. This property of PON1 accounts for its ability to protect against atherosclerosis.

Haplotype-Phenotype Relationships of Paraoxonase-1 [PDF]
Abstract Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an enzyme with multiple activities, including detoxification of organophosphates. It is believed to be important in preventing neurotoxic damage and has also been implicated in atherosclerosis. The PON1 gene contains five common polymorphisms, three in the promoter (−909G > C, −162A > G ...
