Paraoxonases Activities and Polymorphisms in Elderly and Old-Age Diseases: An Overview
Aging is defined as the accumulation of progressive organ dysfunction. There is much evidence linking the involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of aging.

Although AMD is a complex disease, oxidative stress is a crucial contributor to its development, especially in view of the higher oxygen demand of the retina. Paraoxonase 2 (PON2) is a ubiquitously and constitutively expressed antioxidant protein that is

Ancient convergent losses of Paraoxonase 1 yield potential risks for modern marine mammals
Adaptive conflicts with the modern world Mammals evolved in terrestrial environments. Those that now live in the marine environment have had to adapt to the particular selective pressures that this environment imposes. Meyer et al.

Cardiovascular disease incidence and cancer risk in two large European prospective cohorts
What's new? Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer share risk factors and biological mechanisms, raising questions about potential associations between the two, particularly regarding CVD duration and cancer onset. Whether CVD influences subsequent cancer risk, however, remains inconclusive.

Effect of Andrographolide on Paraoxonase 2 Expression in Male Wistar Rats
Background and purpose: The paraoxonase 2 is one of the paraoxonase family enzymes, which, unlike the paraoxonase 1 and 3, is an intracellular antioxidant system expressed in many cells. Andrographophyllide is a plant that has recently received attention

Paraoxonase activity and genotype predispose to successful aging. [PDF]
The paraoxonase 1 codon 192 R allele has been previously reported to have a role in successful aging. The relationship between PON1 genotypes, enzymatic activity, and mass concentration was evaluated in a group of 229 participants from 22 to 104 years of

Antioxidant Status and Serum Prolidase Activity in Women with Subclinical Hypothroidism
Purpose: Thyroid hormones are associated with the oxidant-antioxidant balance in the organism. Hypothyroidism is associated with impaired collagen turnover. We aimed to evaluate paraoxonase (PON) and arylesterase (ARE) activities, which prevent oxidative
