چکیده

human serum paraoxonase (pon) associated with high density lipoprotein (hdl) , has been postulated to have a role in protecting low-density lipoprotein (ldl) against oxidative damage, which has led to the proposal that pon is an anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory enzyme. it has genetic polymorphism at the 191 (r ->q) and two alloenzymes a and b and three phenotypes a, b, and ab. we examined the activity of arylesterase and paraoxonase among healthy individuals and in patients with hypercholesterolemia. equal activity distribution was observed among males and females for both enzymes. arylesterase activity displayed a normal distribution in the population under study. however, paraoxonase activity demonstrated a three modal activity. population distribution of a, b and ab polymorphism were 46, 10 and 44 percent respectively. a significant direct correlation between paraoxonase activity and triglyceride levels was observed (p

Paraoxonase and arylesterase activity in bladder cancer.

OBJECTIVE Oxidative stress is the main pathogenetic mechanism in bladder cancer among many other causes. We aimed to investigate whether a potential relationship exists between bladder cancer and the activities of paraoxonase (PON1) and arylesterase (ARE) enzymes. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 56 patients with bladder cancer, and 57 healthy individuals. The relationships between enz...

Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Patients with Cancer

Background: Cancer has the highest disease-related mortality rate in Iran. Reduced activity of paraoxonase reported in patients with cancer may be due to a reduction in its antioxidant properties and a subsequent increased risk of developing cancer. We aimed to assess antioxidant and oxidative status in patients with cancer through measuring the activity of PON1 as an antioxidant enzyme and det...

Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in patients with preeclampsia.

OBJECTIVE Paraoxonase is a high density lipoprotein-associated anti-oxidant enzyme. The aim of this study was to investigate the serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities and associations between these enzymes and lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH) in preeclamptic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 47 preeclamptic (25 severe and 22 mild preeclampsia cases) and 20 normotensive heal...

The Effect of Date Seed (Phoenix dactylifera) Extract on Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Hypercholesterolemic Rats

BACKGROUND Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a high- density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated enzyme, displaying esterase and lactonase activity. The PON1 is involved in a variety of inflammatory diseases, metabolizing toxic oxidized lipids and detoxifying of organophosphorus insecticide compounds and nerve agents. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of methanolic date seed extr...

Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in hemodialysis patients.

Cardiac death from atherosclerosis is common in hemodialysis patients. Human serum paraoxonase (PON1), an esterase, is associated with high-density lipoprotein and inhibits the susceptibility to oxidization of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The PON1 genetic polymorphisms of 192 Gln/Arg and 55 Leu/Met in the amino acid sequence are partly involved in the PON1 enzyme activity. We investigated the...
