Paraoxonase-1 and clopidogrel efficacy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2011
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 -thiol-acid.

The paraoxonase 1, 2 and 3 in humans [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemia Medica, 2011
The paraoxonase gene family in humans includes three members: PON1, PON2 and PON3. The products of those three genes are the following enzymes: paraoxonase 1 (PON1), paraoxonase 2 (PON2) and paraoxonase 3 (PON3). PON1 is mainly associated with a high density lipoprotein (HDL). A small amount of this enzyme is also bound to very low-density lipoprotein (

Paraoxonase 1 Activity and Survival in Sepsis Patients

open access: yesBalkan Medical Journal, 2015
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 ...

Genetic polymorphisms of paraoxonase 1 and susceptibility to atherogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2013
Introduction. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a multifunctional enzyme associated with high-density lipoprotein particles (HDL). It is a cellular antioxidant that hydrolyses oxidized macromolecules, especially low-density lipoproteins (ox-LDL).

Ascorbic acid partly antagonizes resveratrol mediated heme oxygenase-1 but not paraoxonase-1 induction in cultured hepatocytes - role of the redox-regulated transcription factor Nrf2 [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2011
Background Both resveratrol and vitamin C (ascorbic acid) are frequently used in complementary and alternative medicine. However, little is known about the underlying mechanisms for potential health benefits of resveratrol and its interactions with ...

Paraoxonase-1 and Early-Life Environmental Exposures

open access: yesAnnals of Global Health, 2016
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]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2004
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]

open access: yesRedox Report, 2013
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]

open access: yesJournal of Lipids, 2012
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.
