Caffeine Increases Apolipoprotein A-1 and Paraoxonase-1 but not Paraoxonase-3 Protein Levels in Human-Derived Liver (HepG2) Cells [PDF]
Background: Apolipoprotein A-1, paraoxonase-1 and paraoxonase-3 are antioxidant and anti-atherosclerotic structural high-density lipoprotein proteins that are mainly synthesized by the liver.

Purification of Human Serum Paraoxonase and Effect of Acetylsalicylic Acid on Paraoxonase Activity [PDF]
AbstractParaoxonase was purified from human serum using sepharose-4B-l-tyrosine-1-napthylamine affinity chromatography. This enzyme was purified 1797-fold. SDS-polyacrylamide electrophoresis of the enzyme indicates a single protein staining band with an apparent Mr of 43 kDa. The kinetic properties of the purified enzyme were determined.

Effect of Glimepiride on Paraoxonase Activity [PDF]
AbstractIn this study, the effect of glimepiride on serum paraoxonase activity (EC 3.1.8.1.) has been investigated in vitro.. The inhibition and activation effects of this drug on serum paraoxonase activity was measured spectrophotometrically using paraoxon as the substrate.

Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in fibromyalgia [PDF]
We aimed to evaluate the association of serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities and oxidative/antioxidative status in patients with fibromyalgia. Forty-two patients with fibromyalgia and 53 healthy controls were included in the study. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were measured spectrophotometrically.

Developmental expression of paraoxonase 2 [PDF]
Paraoxonase 2 (PON2) is a member of the paraoxonase gene family also comprising PON1 and PON3. PON2 functions as a lactonase and exhibits anti-bacterial as well as antioxidant properties. At the cellular level, PON2 localizes to the mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum membranes where it scavenges reactive oxygen species.

Study the levels of Leptin, and Adiponectin with Paraoxonase in Obese Individuals (male & female)
Obesity is a well-known risk factor of metabolic complications and cardiovascular disease. Associations between anthropometric measurements and fat distribution and risk factors for cardiovascular disease have been demonstrated in several populations.
