Paraoxonase 1 phenotype and paraoxonase activity in asthmatic patients.
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of asthma. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and arylesterase are esterase enzymes displaying antioxidant characteristics. PON1 activity varies widely among individuals and ethnic groups, partly related to polymorphisms.

Oxidative status and paraoxonase activity in children with asthma [PDF]
Objective: To compare paraoxonase activity and changes in oxidative status in asthmatic children and healthy children by determining serum paraoxonase activity and total oxidative status, total antioxidant capacity and lipid hydroperoxidation.

Analysis of structural and functional parameters of HDL has gained significant momentum in recent years because they are stronger predictors of cardiovascular risk than HDL-cholesterol levels. Surprisingly, in most HDL studies, very low attention is paid

RAGE Re‐Expressed at Myofibre Level Drives Muscle Wasting in Cancer Conditions
ABSTRACT Background Cancer cachexia (CC) is a highly debilitating syndrome characterized by loss of body and muscle weight affecting most advanced cancer patients. The receptor for advanced glycation end‐products (RAGE) is expressed by several cell types and sustains the inflammatory response in acute and chronic diseases. Total ablation of RAGE (Ager−/

Paraoxonase and Prolidase Activity in Patietns With Malignant Gliomas [PDF]
WOS: 000312600000012Aim: We aimed to determine the relationship both paraoxonase and prolidase activitys in the patients with malignant glioma. Methods: In this study, serum paraoxonase and prolidase activitys were measured on 25 healthy human and 25 ...

We performed longitudinal evaluation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and dopamine transporter single‐photon emission computed tomography (DAT‐SPECT) in a case of organophosphate‐induced toxic parkinsonism. Fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images showed bilateral striatal hyperintensity in the acute phase, followed by reduction of ...

High density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated paraoxonase (PON) seems to play a major role in the protection of low density lipoprotein (LDL) against peroxidation by HDL, and the partly purified enzyme exerts a dose-dependent protective effect.

Current bladder cancer therapies can cause toxicity and bladder dysfunction. Brief intravesical‐like aripiprazole exposure reduced bladder cancer cell viability and was associated with redox stress and caspase‐3 activation, while ex vivo findings suggested preserved bladder structure and function, warranting further investigation as a potential ...

Paraoxonase phenotype distribution in a healthy Iranian population [PDF]
Human serum paraoxonase (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein-associated esterase that protects against organophosphate neurotoxicity, and is proposed to play a role in lipid metabolism and the onset of cardiovascular disease.
