Paraoxonase-1 and clopidogrel efficacy [PDF]
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 ...

The paraoxonase 1, 2 and 3 in humans [PDF]
The paraoxonase gene family in humans includes three members: PON1, PON2 and PON3. The pro-ducts of those three genes are the following enzymes: paraoxonase 1 (PON1), paraoxonase 2 (PON2) and paraoxonase 3 (PON3).

Paraoxonase 1 Activity and Survival in Sepsis Patients
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]
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]
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 polymorphisms and survival [PDF]
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]
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.
