Paraoxonase Role in Human Neurodegenerative Diseases
The human body has biological redox systems capable of preventing or mitigating the damage caused by increased oxidative stress throughout life. One of them are the paraoxonase (PON) enzymes.

Activity of HDL-associated paraoxonase was measured using phenylacetate as substrate. Paraoxonase activity of apoB-depleted sera was calculated from the slopes of the kinetic chart. Values shown represent means of four independent experiments.

Human high-density lipoproteins (HDL) show a broad spectrum of antiviral activity in terms of anti-infection. Although many reports have pointed out a correlation between a lower serum HDL-C and a higher risk of COVID-19 infection and progression, the in

Paraoxonase‐2: A potential biomarker for skin cancer aggressiveness
Cutaneous neoplasms include melanoma and non‐melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs). Among NMSCs, basal cell carcinoma (BCC) represents the most common lesion. On the contrary, although accounting for less than 5% of all skin cancers, melanoma is responsible for ...

Determination of Some Biochemical Parameters of Patients with Hepatitis B in Kirkuk City [PDF]
Hepatitis B infection is a worldwide healthcare problem, especially in developing areas. The current study was to evaluate the alterations in different biochemical parameters including paraoxonase (PON), 5′-Nucleotidase (5NT), total bilirubin, direct ...

Paraoxonase Activity in Glomerulonephritic Patients [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic renal failure. Glomerulonephritic patients have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, but its etiology is unclear. It is known that an increase in oxidizability of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins has a key role in the initiation of ...
