Paraoxonase-1 is related to inflammation, fibrosis and PPAR delta in experimental liver disease [PDF]
Background Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an antioxidant enzyme synthesized by the liver. It protects against liver impairment and attenuates the production of the pro-inflammatory monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1).

PON1 multitasks to protect health [PDF]
The enzyme paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an excellent example of a multitasking protein, displaying at least two very important functions: hydrolysis of organophosphorus (OP) anticholinesterases and prevention of oxidation of low density lipoproteins (LDLs) and high density lipoproteins (HDLs).

Effect of PON1 on dichlorvos toxicokinetics [PDF]
To provide toxicokinetic and clinical evidence of the hydrolytic effect of paraoxonase-1 (PON1) on acute organophosphate poisoning in rats.40 male Wistar rats were randomised into four equal groups. Dichlorvos administration group (A group) underwent dichlorvos injection (dissolved in corn oil) using intraperitoneal (ip) dose of 10 mg/kg.

PON1 concentration and high-density lipoprotein characteristics as cardiovascular biomarkers
Introduction Serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is now known to be related to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between PON1 concentration and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subclasses in patients with proven ...

Decreased paraoxonase-1 activity is associated with alterations of high-density lipoprotein particles in chronic liver impairment [PDF]
Background Paraoxonase-1 (PON1), a lactonase synthesized by the liver, circulates in blood bound to high-density lipoproteins (HDL). This enzyme is thought to degrade oxidized phospholipids and play an important role in the organism's antioxidant and ...
