High-Density Lipoprotein-Associated Paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) and Scavenger Receptor Class B Type 1 (SRB-1) in Coronary Artery Disease: Correlation with Disease Severity. J Clin Med 2024; 13:5480. [PMID: 39336967 PMCID: PMC11432482 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13185480] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2024] [Revised: 09/04/2024] [Accepted: 09/11/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. High-Density lipoprotein (HDL) is a well-established marker associated with CAD. The current research goes beyond the conventional HDL-C measurement in previous studies and dives into the functional intricacies of HDL. By understanding how HDL works, rather than just how much of it exists, we can better tailor diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for CAD and related conditions. Hence, the current study quantifies the serum levels of two novel HDL-associated markers, Paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) and Scavenger Receptor Class B Type 1 (SRB-1), in CAD cases vs. controls. Methods: A total of 92 subjects, including 69 CAD and 23 healthy controls, were included, based on the prevalence of the disease. Further, based on the severity of the disease, CAD cases were subcategorized as CAD-I, -II, and -III. Serum PON-1 and SRB-1 levels were measured and compared between patient and control groups. Results: The levels of PON-1 and SRB-1 (32.6 ng/mL and 12.49 ng/mL) were significantly lower in CAD patients vs. the healthy control, at 60.36 ng/mL and 15.85 ng/mL, respectively (p < 0.000). A further intergroup comparison showed a statistically significant difference between the CAT-I and -III for PON-1 (p < 0.025), the CAT-I and -III, and CAT-II and -III for SRB-1 (p < 0.000). The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve showed cutoff values of 48.20 ng/mL and 14.90 ng/mL for PON-1 and SRB-1. Conclusions: The current study found that serum levels of HDL-associated PON-1 and SRB-1 are significantly lower in CAD cases, and were also inversely related to the increasing severity of coronary artery disease. This inference implies that serum PON-1 and SRB-1 could be used as non-invasive tools for the identification of coronary atherosclerosis and risk assessment in CAD cases.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:2813. [PMID: 36833509 PMCID: PMC9957543 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20042813] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a calcium-dependent, HDL-bound serum hydrolase active toward a wide variety of substrates. PON1 displays three types of activities, among which lactonase, paraoxonase, arylesterase and phosphotriesterase can be distinguished. Not only is this enzyme a major organophosphate compound detoxifier, but it is also an important constituent of the cellular antioxidant system and has anti-inflammatory and antiatherogenic functions. The concentration and activity of PON1 is highly variable among individuals, and these differences can be both of genetic origin and be a subject of epigenetic regulation. Owing to the fact that, in recent decades, the exposure of humans to an increasing number of different xenobiotics has been continuously rising, the issues concerning the role and activity of PON1 shall be reconsidered with particular attention to growing pharmaceuticals intake, dietary habits and environmental awareness. In the following manuscript, the current state of knowledge concerning the influence of certain modifiable and unmodifiable factors, including smoking, alcohol intake, gender, age and genotype variation on PON1 activity, along with pathways through which these could interfere with the enzyme's protective functions, is presented and discussed. Since exposure to certain xenobiotics plays a key role in PON1 activity, the influence of organophosphates, heavy metals and several pharmaceutical agents is also specified.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease-related deaths (one-third of global deaths) can be reduced with a simple screening test for better biomarkers than the current lipid and lipoprotein profiles. We propose using a highly atheroprotective subset of HDL with colocalized PON1 (PON1-HDL) for superior cardiovascular risk assessment. However, direct quantification of HDL proteomic subclasses are complicated by the peroxides/antioxidants associated with HDL interfering with redox reactions in enzymatic calorimetric and electrochemical immunoassays. Hence, we developed an enzyme-free Nanoparticle-Gated Electrokinetic Membrane Sensor (NGEMS) platform for quantification of PON1-HDL in plasma within 60 min, with a sub-picomolar limit of detection, 3-4 log dynamic range and without needing sample pretreatment or individual-sample calibration. Using NGEMS, we report our study on human plasma PON1-HDL as a cardiovascular risk marker with AUC~0.99 significantly outperforming others (AUC~0.6-0.8), including cholesterol/triglycerides tests. Validation for a larger cohort can establish PON1-HDL as a biomarker that can potentially reshape cardiovascular landscape.

Abstract
Introduction The present study aimed to investigate the association of the paraoxonase 1 (PON1) Q192R polymorphism with coronary artery disease (CAD) and cardiometabolic risk factors in Iranian patients suspected of CAD. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted on 428 patients undergoing angiography. The data related to demographic information and physical activity were collected by valid and reliable questionnaires. The PON-1 genotypes were detected by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP-PCR) technique. The Gensini and SYNTAX score, anthropometric measurements, and biochemical and clinical parameters were measured by standard protocols. Results and discussion Findings indicated that the odds of obesity was significantly higher in people with the RR genotype compared to the QQ genotype carriers (OR: 2.95 CI: 1.25-6.93, P = 0.014) and also odds of low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was marginally higher (OR: 2.31 CI: 0.97-5.49, P = 0.056). There was no significant association between other CAD risk factors with PON1 Q192R polymorphism (P > 0.05). Further analysis showed a significant interaction between sex and 192QR (P = 0.019) and 192 RR (P = 0.007) genotypes on body mass index (BMI). More specifically, the risk of obesity in men carrying the RR genotype was 3.38 times (OR: 3.38 CI: 1.08-10.58, P = 0.036). Also, a significant joint effect of the RR genotype and sex on HDL-C was seen (P = 0.003). The stratification based on sex showed that the risk of low HDL-C is significantly higher in women carrying the RR genotype (OR: 6.18 CI: 1.21-31.46, P = 0.028). A marginal sex-genotype interaction was also found in the risk of elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (P = 0.057). In summary, the findings showed that the risk of obesity and low HDL-C was higher in people carrying the RR genotype. On the other hand, a Q192R polymorphism-sex interaction was observed on the risk of obesity, elevated ALT, and low HDL-C.

Abstract
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an antioxidant enzyme attached to HDL with an anti-atherogenic potential. It protects LDL and HDL from lipid peroxidation. The enzyme is sensitive to various modulating factors, such as genetic polymorphisms as well as pharmacological, dietary (including carotenoids), and lifestyle interventions. Carotenoids are nutritional pigments with antioxidant activity. The aim of this review was to gather evidence on their effect on the modulation of PON1 activity and gene expression. Carotenoids administered as naturally occurring nutritional mixtures may present a synergistic beneficial effect on PON1 status. The effect of carotenoids on the enzyme depends on age, ethnicity, gender, diet, and PON1 genetic variation. Carotenoids, especially astaxanthin, β-carotene, and lycopene, increase PON1 activity. This effect may be explained by their ability to quench singlet oxygen and scavenge free radicals. β-carotene and lycopene were additionally shown to upregulate PON1 gene expression. The putative mechanisms of such regulation involve PON1 CpG-rich region methylation, Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKKII) pathway induction, and upregulation via steroid regulatory element-binding protein-2 (SREBP-2). More detailed and extensive research on the mechanisms of PON1 modulation by carotenoids may lead to the development of new targeted therapies for cardiovascular diseases.

Paraoxonase 1 hydrolysis of EPA-derived lactone impairs endothelial-mediated vasodilation. Prostaglandins Other Lipid Mediat 2022; 162:106665.

Abstract
Human serum paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a lactonase that plays a significant role in anti-atherosclerotic high-density lipoprotein (HDL) activity. PON1 is also localized in endothelial cell membranes, where it is enzymatically active and regulates endothelial signals. PON1 has a high specificity for lipophilic lactones and has been shown to hydrolyze and regulate lactone lipid mediators derived from arachidonic polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Previously, we showed that an arachidonic acid lactone metabolite (AA-L) dose-dependently dilates PON1 gene deletion (PON1KO) mouse mesenteric arteries significantly more than wild-type arteries. In contrast, preincubation with HDL or rePON1 reduced AA-L-dependent vasodilation. Recently we showed that an additional δ-lactone metabolite derived from the eicosapentaenoic acid lactone, 5,6-δ-DiHETE lactone (EPA-L) reduced blood pressure by dilating microvessels of hypertensive rats. However, whether PON1 regulates the activity of the EPA-L lipid mediator is unknown. AIM To demonstrate that PON1 hydrolyzes EPA-L and to reveal the effect of this hydrolysis on endothelial-dependent vascular dilation. METHODS AND RESULTS In vascular reactivity experiments, EPA-L dose-dependently dilated PON1KO mouse mesenteric arteries significantly more than wild-type mesenteric arteries. This dilation was not affected by nitric oxide inhibition. PON1 impaired the cellular calcium increase mediated by EPA-L in endothelial cells, though this impairment decreased with PON1 internalization to the cell. CONCLUSION These findings support that PUFA-lactones are physiological substrates of PON1, and that PON1 activity in the endothelial membrane affects the dilation of microvessels that is induced by these endothelial-derived hyperpolarizing PUFA-lactones.

Abstract
Lipoproteins interact with immune cells, macrophages and endothelial cells - key players of the innate and adaptive immune system. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles seem to have evolved as part of the innate immune system since certain HDL subspecies contain combinations of apolipoproteins with immune regulatory functions. HDL is enriched in anti-inflammatory lipids, such as sphingosine-1-phosphate and certain saturated lysophospholipids. HDL reduces inflammation and protects against infection by modulating immune cell function, vasodilation and endothelial barrier function. HDL suppresses immune cell activation at least in part by modulating the cholesterol content in cholesterol/sphingolipid-rich membrane domains (lipid rafts), which play a critical role in the compartmentalization of signaling pathways. Acute infections, inflammation or autoimmune diseases lower HDL cholesterol levels and significantly alter HDL metabolism, composition and function. Such alterations could have a major impact on disease progression and may affect the risk for infections and cardiovascular disease. This review article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the immune cell modulatory activities of HDL. We focus on newly discovered activities of HDL-associated apolipoproteins, enzymes, lipids, and HDL mimetic peptides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain oxidative lipid damage and inflammation are common in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Paraoxonase-1 and -3 (PON1 and PON3) protein expression was demonstrated in tissue with no PON1 or PON3 gene expression. In the present study, we examine differences in PON1 and PON3 protein expression in the brain of a mouse model of AD. METHODS we used peroxidase- and fluorescence-based immunohistochemistry in five brain regions (olfactory bulb, forebrain, posterior midbrain, hindbrain and cerebellum) of transgenic (Tg2576) mice with the Swedish mutation (KM670/671NL) responsible for a familial form of AD and corresponding wild-type mice. RESULTS We found intense PON1 and PON3-positive staining in star-shaped cells surrounding Aβ plaques in all the studied Tg2576 mouse-brain regions. Although we could not colocalize PON1 and PON3 with astrocytes (star-shaped cells in the brain), we found some PON3 colocalization with microglia. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that (1) PON1 and PON3 cross the blood-brain barrier in discoidal high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and are transferred to specific brain-cell types; and (2) PON1 and PON3 play an important role in preventing oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in particular brain-cell types (likely to be glial cells) in AD pathology and potentially in other neurodegenerative diseases as well.

Abstract
Significance: Human paraoxonase (PON) is a member of the gene family that includes paraoxonase 1 (PON1), PON2, and PON3. PON is known for its capacity to hydrolyze a wide range of substrates, including organophosphorus compounds, nerve gases, and aromatic carboxylic acid esters. Recent Advances: Several studies have highlighted the involvement of PON, particularly PON1, in the modulation of the capacity of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) to protect against the atherosclerosis process and its clinical manifestations. PON1 exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and may be involved in the regulation of the principal antiatherogenic activity of HDL, that is, the regulation of the reverse cholesterol transport process. Critical Issues: Although epidemiological studies have shown that there is an inverse relationship between HDL levels and cardiovascular risk, several studies have emphasized the importance of HDL functionality in protecting against cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Given that PON1 is involved in several atheroprotective functions of HDL, the aim of this article is to review the existing literature on PON1 and to discuss the principal mechanisms by which PON1 may exert its different activities. Future Directions: The elucidation of the mechanisms by which PON1 modulates the functionality of HDL as well as the identification of the interventions that stimulate PON1 activity and/or increase its plasma concentration would make it possible to propose new strategies to prevent CVD.

Abstract
Endothelial lipase (EL) is a strong modulator of the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) structure, composition, and function. Here, we examined the impact of EL on HDL paraoxonase 1 (PON1) content and arylesterase (AE) activity in vitro and in vivo. The incubation of HDL with EL-overexpressing HepG2 cells decreased HDL size, PON1 content, and AE activity. The EL modification of HDL did not diminish the capacity of HDL to associate with PON1 when EL-modified HDL was incubated with PON1-overexpressing cells. The overexpression of EL in mice significantly decreased HDL serum levels but unexpectedly increased HDL PON1 content and HDL AE activity. Enzymatically inactive EL had no effect on the PON1 content of HDL in mice. In healthy subjects, EL serum levels were not significantly correlated with HDL levels. However, HDL PON1 content was positively associated with EL serum levels. The EL-induced changes in the HDL-lipid composition were not linked to the HDL PON1 content. We conclude that primarily, the interaction of enzymatically active EL with HDL, rather than EL-induced alterations in HDL size and composition, causes PON1 displacement from HDL in vitro. In vivo, the EL-mediated reduction of HDL serum levels and the consequently increased PON1-to-HDL ratio in serum increase HDL PON1 content and AE activity in mice. In humans, additional mechanisms appear to underlie the association of EL serum levels and HDL PON1 content.

Abstract
Several lines of epidemiological evidence link increased levels of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) with lower risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This observed relationship might reflect the beneficial effects of HDL on the cardiovascular system, likely due to the implication of vascular dysregulation in AD development. The atheroprotective properties of this lipoprotein are mostly due to its proteome. In particular, apolipoprotein (Apo) A-I, E, and J and the antioxidant accessory protein paraoxonase 1 (PON1), are the main determinants of the biological function of HDL. Intriguingly, these HDL constituent proteins are also present in the brain, either from in situ expression, or derived from the periphery. Growing preclinical evidence suggests that these HDL proteins may prevent the aberrant changes in the brain that characterize AD pathogenesis. In the present review, we summarize and critically examine the current state of knowledge on the role of these atheroprotective HDL-associated proteins in AD pathogenesis and physiopathology.

Abstract
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated lactonase that plays a significant role in the anti-atherosclerotic activity of HDL. However, several studies have shown that PON1 localizes in cells, where it operates independently of HDL. Previously, we showed that PON1 localizes in endothelial cells (ECs), and impairs vasodilation mediated by the endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) 5,6-δ-DHTL. However, the internalization pathway of PON1 into ECs, and the intracellular fate of PON1 are unknown. Therefore, the present study aimed to elucidate the uptake mechanism, intracellular trafficking and the function of PON1 in ECs. We conducted a series of inhibition experiments of fluorescently labeled recombinant PON1 (rePON1) in ECs, followed by FACS analyses. We found that rePON1 binds the EC membrane via specific binding sites located in lipid-rafts/caveolae microdomains that are shared with HDL, and internalized through dynamin-dependent endocytosis. Qualitative assessments of the intracellular trafficking of rePON1, using confocal z-stack images, showed colocalization of the labeled rePON1 with early and late endosome/lysosome markers. Accordingly, a "pulse-chase" incubation of rePON1, followed by lactonase activity measurement in EC lysate, revealed that rePON1 retains its lactonase activity after binding to the cells. However, this activity decreases over time. Finally, induction of endothelial dysfunction with high glucose, angiotensin II, or palmitic acid increased rePON1 uptake by ECs. In conclusion, these results indicate that free PON1 interacts with ECs via binding sites located in lipid-rafts/caveolae, where it is enzymatically active and regulates endothelial functions. However, once internalized, PON1 is degraded. Additionally, alteration in endothelial function affects PON1 uptake by ECs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a high density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated lactonase, which is known for its antiatherogenic properties. Previous studies in PON1 knockout (PON1KO) mice revealed that PON1KO mice have low blood pressure, which is inversely correlated with the renal levels of the cytochrome P450 -derived arachidonic acid metabolite 5,6-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (5,6-EET). Our previous studies revealed that 5,6-EET is unstable, transforming to the δ-lactone isomer 5,6-δ-DHTL, an endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) that mediates vasodilation, and it is a potential substrate for PON1. AIM To elucidate the role of PON1 in the modulation of vascular resistance via the regulation of the lactone-containing metabolite 5,6-δ-DHTL. RESULTS In mouse resistance arteries, PON1 was found to be present and active in the endothelial layer. Vascular reactivity experiments revealed that 5,6-δ-DHTL dose-dependently dilates PON1KO mouse mesenteric arteries significantly more than wild type (w.t.) resistance arteries. Pre-incubation with HDL or rePON1 reduced 5,6-δ-DHTL-dependent vasodilation. FACS analyses and confocal microscopy experiments revealed that fluorescence-tagged rePON1 penetrates into human endothelial cells' (ECs') in both dose- and time- dependent manner, accumulate in the perinuclear compartment, and retains its lactonase activity in the cells. The presence of rePON1, but not the presence of PON1 loss-of-lactonase-activity mutant, reduced the Ca2+ influx in the ECs mediated by 5,6-δ-DHTL. CONCLUSION PON1 lactonase activity in the endothelium affects vascular dilation by regulating Ca2+ influx mediated by the lactone-containing EDHF 5,6-δ-DHTL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a paraoxonase, arylesterase and lactonase associated with protection of lipoproteins and cell membranes against oxidative modification. OBJECTIVE Based on antioxidative properties of PON1 and significance of 1,3,4-thiadiazoles in pharmaceutical chemistry, herein we aimed to evaluate the potentials of 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives as PON1 activators. METHODS 2-[[5-(2,4-Difluoro/dichlorophenylamino)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]thio]acetophenone derivatives (1-18) were in vitro evaluated for their activator effects on PON1 which was purified using ammonium sulfate precipitation (60-80%) and DEAE-Sephadex anion exchange chromatography. Molecular docking studies were performed for the detection of affinities of all compounds to the active site of PON1. Moreover, Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism and Excretion (ADME) properties of all compounds were also in silico predicted. In silico molecular docking and ADME studies were carried out according to modules of Schrodinger's Maestro molecular modeling package. RESULTS All compounds, particularly compounds 10, 13 and 17, were determined as promising PON1 activators and apart from compound 1, all of them were detected in the active site of PON1. Besides, ADME results indicated that all compounds were potential orally bioavailable drug-like molecules. CONCLUSION PON1 activators, compounds 10, 13 and 17 stand out as potential drug candidates for further antioxidant studies and these compounds can be investigated for their therapeutic effects in many disorders such as atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, obesity, chronic liver inflammation and many more.

Abstract
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) plays an important role in preventing atherosclerosis. The antioxidant effect of HDL is mostly associated with paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity. Increasing PON1 activity using nutrients might improve HDL function and quality and thus, decrease atherosclerotic risk. We previously isolated and identified a novel active compound, lyso-DGTS (C20:5,0) from Nannochloropsis sp. ethanol extract. In the present study, its effect on PON1 activities was examined and the mechanism by which the compound affects PON1 activity was explored. Lyso-DGTS elevated recombinant PON1 (rePON1) lactonase and esterase activities in a dose- and time-responsive manner, and further stabilized and preserved rePON1 lactonase activity. Incubation of lyso-DGTS with human serum for 4 h at 37 °C also increased PON1 lactonase activity in a dose-responsive manner. Using tryptophan-fluorescence-quenching assay, lyso-DGTS was found to interact with rePON1 spontaneously with negative free energy (ΔG = -22.87 kJ mol-1 at 25 °C). Thermodynamic parameters and molecular modeling calculations showed that the main interaction of lyso-DGTS with the enzyme is through a hydrogen bond with supporting van der Waals interactions. Furthermore, lyso-DGTS significantly increased rePON1 influx into macrophages and prevented lipid accumulation in macrophages stimulated with oxidized low-density lipid dose-dependently. In vivo supplementation of lyso-DGTS to the circulation of mice fed a high-fat diet via osmotic mini-pumps implanted subcutaneously significantly increased serum PON1 lactonase activity and decreased serum glucose concentrations to the level of mice fed a normal diet. Our findings suggest a beneficial effect of lyso-DGTS on increasing PON1 activity and thus, improving HDL quality and atherosclerotic risk factors. © 2018 BioFactors, 44(3):299-310, 2018.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Unregulated uptake of oxidized LDL by macrophages to form foam cells is the hallmark for atherosclerosis. The paraoxonase (PON) family of enzymes plays a critical role in attenuating atherosclerotic lesion formation by hydrolyzing lipid peroxides (LOOHs) and preventing the oxidation of LDL particles and by enhancing HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux. Findings in recent years suggest novel mechanisms by which PON isoforms interact with macrophages to regulate cholesterol metabolism and cellular function. RECENT FINDINGS The association of PON with HDL particles facilitates binding of the particle to macrophages and ABCA1-dependent cholesterol efflux. The hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids by PON generates lysophosphatidylcholine which is shown to regulate expression of cholesterol transport proteins. The PON family also regulates multiple aspects of macrophage function. PON attenuates inflammation and prevents induction of apoptosis via activation of a scavenger receptor class B type-1-dependent signaling mechanism. PON limits macrophage-dependent oxidant formation by preventing the activation of the membrane-associated NADPH oxidase and by stabilizing mitochondria. PON also promotes the differentiation of macrophages to an anti-inflammatory phenotype. This function appears to be independent of PON enzymatic activity and, rather, is dependent on the ability of endogenous sulfhydryls to neutralize pro-inflammatory peroxides. SUMMARY In recent years, the therapeutic efficacy of HDL-based therapies has been subject to dispute. Pharmacological approaches that target an increase in the expression and/or activity of PON may facilitate macrophage cholesterol metabolism and attenuate inflammatory injury.

Abstract
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) gene polymorphisms have been closely associated with the development of advanced cancers while PON1 secretion to the serum is linked with inhibition of oxidized high-density lipoprotein by its antioxidative function. Our group previously demonstrated that post-translational modification of serum PON1 in form of fucosylated PON1 is a potential biomarker of small cell lung cancer. Here, we interrogated the role of PON1 in the pathobiology of lung cancer (LC) by addressing cell-autonomous mechanisms using gain-of-function and loss-of-function approaches and protein expression profiling of tissue samples in our clinical biobank. PON1 expression in LC patient tissues varied between overexpression in squamous cell carcinoma and minimal loss in adenocarcinoma sub-types. Simultaneous overexpression of PON1 both at the gene and protein stability levels induced pro-oncogenic characteristics in LC cells and xenografts. PON1 overexpression supported metastatic progression of LC by decreasing G1/S ratio and LC cell senescence involving p21Waf1/Cip1. PON1 suppressed drug- and ligand-induced cell death and protected LC cells from genotoxic damages with maintained ATP levels, requiring p53-directed signals. PON1 promoted ROS deregulation protecting the mitochondria from dysregulation. PON1 knockdown resulted in the blockage of its antioxidant function in LC cells through Akt signaling with reduced invasive signature as a consequence of scant expression. Targeted glycolysis stimulated PON1 antioxidant activity regulating phosphorylation of AMPK-α. The functional data imply that exploitation of the antioxidative function of PON1 is consequential in driving LC pathogenesis at the cell-autonomous mechanistic level with consequences on tumor growth.

Abstract
The circadian timing system regulates key aspects of mammalian physiology. Here, we analyzed the effect of the endogenous antioxidant paraoxonase 1 (PON1), a high-density lipoprotein-associated lipolactonase that hydrolyses lipid peroxides and attenuates atherogenesis, on circadian gene expression in C57BL/6J and PON1KO mice fed a normal chow diet or a high-fat diet (HFD). Expression levels of core-clock transcripts Nr1d1, Per2, Cry2 and Bmal1 were altered in skeletal muscle in PON1-deficient mice in response to HFD. These findings were supported by circadian bioluminescence reporter assessments in mouse C2C12 and human primary myotubes, synchronized in vitro, where administration of PON1 or pomegranate juice modulated circadian period length.

Abstract
Despite great strides in understanding the atherogenesis process, the mechanisms are not entirely known. In addition to diet, cigarette smoking, genetic predisposition, and hypertension, hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), an accumulation of the noncoding sulfur-containing amino acid homocysteine (Hcy), is a significant contributor to atherogenesis. Although exercise decreases HHcy and increases longevity, the complete mechanism is unclear. In light of recent evidence, in this review, we focus on the effects of HHcy on macrophage function, differentiation, and polarization. Though there is need for further evidence, it is most likely that HHcy-mediated alterations in macrophage function are important contributors to atherogenesis, and HHcy-countering strategies, such as nutrition and exercise, should be included in the combinatorial regimens for effective prevention and regression of atherosclerotic plaques. Therefore, we also included a discussion on the effects of exercise on the HHcy-mediated atherogenic process.

[PMID: 25091896 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2014.07.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2014] [Revised: 07/21/2014] [Accepted: 07/24/2014] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Human carotid atherosclerotic plaque is in direct contact with circulatory blood components. Thus, plaque and blood components may affect each other. The current study presents the effects of plaque chloroform:methanol (C:M) extract on the HDL-associated enzyme paraoxnase 1 (PON1). This study is part of our investigation on the mutual effects of the interactions between atherosclerotic lesions and blood components. Recombinant PON1 (rePON1) was incubated with the human carotid plaques C:M extract and PON1 activities were analyzed. Lactonase and paraoxonase activities were elevated due to C:M treatment, by 140 and by 69%, respectively. Analytical chemistry analyses revealed specific phosphatidylcholines (PCs) as the plaque active components. Tryptophan fluorescence quenching assay, together with molecular docking, shows that PON1 activity is enhanced in correlation with the level of PC affinity to PON1. Molecular docking revealed that PCs interact specifically with H2-PON1 α-helix, which together with H1 enzyme α-helix links the protein to the HDL surface. These findings are supported by additional results from the PON1 ∆20 mutant that lack its H1-α-helix. Incubation of this mutant with the plaque C:M extract increased PON1 activity by only 20%, much less than the wild-type PON1 that elevated PON1 activity at the same concentration by as much as 95%. Furthermore, as much as the affinity of the enzyme to the PC was augmented, the ability of PON1 to bind to the HDL particle decreased. Finally, PON1 interaction with PC enhance its uptake into the macrophage cytoplasm. In conclusions, Specific lesion phosphatidylcholines (PCs) present in the human carotid plaque significantly enhance PON1 catalytic activities due to their interaction with the enzyme. Such a lesion׳s PC-PON1 interaction, in turn, competes with HDL PCs and enhances PON1 uptake by macrophage at the expense of PON1 binding to the HDL.

Abstract
In our in vitro study, we analyzed the effects of incubation of J774A.1 macrophages with reduced glutathione (GSH) and quercetin on the extent of cellular cholesterol efflux by high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or apolipoprotein A1 (apoA1). This combination was the most potent one among other exogenous and endogenous antioxidant combinations, since it significantly increased the extent of HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages by 47% versus control cells, whereas quercetin (20 μM) or GSH (200 μM) alone increased it by only 37% or 17%, respectively. Similarly, apoA1-mediated cholesterol efflux was increased by 11% or 22% in quercetin or quercetin + GSH-treated cells, respectively, versus control cells. These stimulatory effects were noted only after 20 h of cell incubation. The combination of quercetin + GSH demonstrated high scavenging capacity of free radicals versus quercetin or GSH alone. In addition, quercetin + GSH significantly decreased macrophage oxidative stress as measured by the scavenging capacity of free radicals in the cells, the formation of reactive oxygen species, and the levels of cellular glutathione and lipid peroxides. There was no significant effect of quercetin + GSH on cellular HDL binding, on ATP-binding cassette A1 (ABCA1) activity, or on ABCG1 messenger RNA (mRNA) levels. In contrast, mRNA levels for ABCA1 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) were both significantly increased by 89% and 93%, respectively, in quercetin + GSH-treated cells versus control cells. Quercetin alone increased the mRNA levels for ABCA1 or PPARα by 42% or 77%, respectively, whereas GSH alone increased it by 22% or 28%, respectively. Mass spectra analysis revealed that oxidized quercetin reacts with GSH to form a new adduct product. We thus conclude that the stimulatory effects of quercetin + GSH on apoA1- or HDL-mediated macrophage cholesterol efflux are related to the ability of GSH to preserve quercetin in its reduced form.

Abstract
We analyzed in-vivo and in-vitro high density lipoprotein (HDL) effects on paraoxonase 1 (PON1) antiatherogenic properties in serum and in macrophages. Intraperitoneal injection to C57BL/6 mice of recombinant PON1 (rePON1) + HDL, in comparison to HDL or to rePON1 alone, significantly increased serum PON1 arylesterase activity (by 20%), and serum-mediated cholesterol efflux from J774A.1 macrophages (by 18%). Similarly, in peritoneal macrophages (MPM) harvested from mice injected with HDL + rePON1 versus rePON1 alone, we observed reduction in oxidative stress (by 11%), increase in cellular PON1 activity (by 14%) and in HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux (by 38%). Incubation of serum or HDL with rePON1, substantially increased PON1 arylesterase activity, two-fold more than the expected additive values. HDL2 and HDL3 increased PON1 activity by 199% or 274%, respectively. Macrophage (J774A.1) cholesterol efflux rate significantly increased by HDL3 + rePON1 versus HDL3 alone (by 19%), but not by HDL2 + rePON1 versus HDL2 alone. Oxidation of HDL3 reduced its ability to induce macrophage cholesterol efflux, and abolished HDL3 stimulatory effects on rePON1. Addition of exogenous polyphenol quercetin (60 µM), but not phosphatidylcholine or apolipoprotein A1, to HDL + rePON1 increased PON1 activity (by 404%), increased the ability to reduce oxidative stress in J774A.1 macrophages (by 53%) and to stimulate macrophage cholesterol efflux (by 14%). Upon adding the hypocholesterolemic drug simvastatin (15 µg/mL) to HDL + rePON1, PON1 activity and the ability to induce macrophage cholesterol efflux increased, in comparison to HDL + rePON1. We thus concluded that HDL (mostly HDL3), stimulates PON1 antiatherogenic activities in macrophages, and these PON1 activities were further stimulated by quercetin, or by simvastatin.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Improving serum levels of HDL and its subfractions, as well as, oxidative/inflammatory properties has become a fundamental aim in today's atherosclerosis research. Efforts to reach this goal are paralleled by achievements in drug development toward decreasing serum LDL levels and oxidative status. RECENT FINDINGS Paraoxonase1 (PON1) is an HDL-associated enzyme that is deemed responsible for many of the HDL's antiatherogenic and cardioprotective characteristics. PON1 is highly sensitive to variations in its milieu, and endogenous compounds (fatty acids, phospholipids), nutritional ingredients (flavonoids and other antioxidants), and environmental elements (reactive nitrogen and oxygen species, metals, surfactants), significantly affect the enzyme's activities. PON1 was shown to be responsible for some of the HDL antiatherogenic characteristics such as HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages, and the inhibition of LDL oxidation. SUMMARY The present review summarizes the recent literature related to various elements in PON1's milieu that regulate its activities, with an emphasis on its interrelation with components of the human carotid atherosclerotic lesion (plaque) which are in constant contact with circulating HDL-associated PON1.

Abstract
Background Decreased serum arylesterase activity, catalyzed by the high‐density lipoprotein–associated paraoxonase (PON)‐1, is associated with increased oxidant stress and atherosclerosis risk. We sought to determine the prognostic value of serum PON‐1 activity, as monitored by PON or arylesterase activities, in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly in relation to established cardiac biomarkers. Methods and Results Serum arylesterase and PON activities were measured in sequential subjects with CKD (n=630; estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2) and an age‐ and sex‐matched control group of non‐CKD subjects (n=315) presenting for cardiac evaluations and prospectively followed for incident (3‐year) major adverse cardiac events (composite of death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and stroke). Serum arylesterase activity in CKD subjects was lower compared with that in non‐CKD control subjects [median (interquartile range) 94 (77 to 112) versus 103 (85 to 121) μmol(L·min) per mL, P<0.001]; similarly, PON activity in CKD subjects was lower compared with that in non‐CKD control subjects [median (interquartile range) 474 (275 to 936) versus 586 (301 to 1118) nmol(L·min) per mL, P<0.001]. Lower serum arylesterase (hazard ratio 1.8, 95% CI 1.26 to 2.57, P<0.01) was a predictor of poorer outcomes. After adjusting for traditional risk factors and medication use, lower serum arylesterase (hazard ratio 1.55, 95% CI 1.08 to 2.23, P<0.05) still conferred an increased risk of major adverse cardiac events at 3 years. Conclusions In patients with CKD, decreased serum arylesterase activity, a measure of diminished antioxidant properties of PON‐1, predicts higher risk of incident long‐term adverse cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke, or death) in multivariable models adjusting for established clinical and biochemical risk factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) was suggested to play an anti-inflammatory role. In the present study we questioned whether PON1 has a direct impact on macrophage inflammatory responses, and the possible functional implications of such effects. METHODS AND RESULTS Ex-vivo studies were performed with bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) harvested from C57BL/6 and human-PON1 transgenic (PON1-Tg) mice, and for the in vitro studies the J774.A1 macrophage-like cell line was used. Pro-inflammatory (M1) activation was induced by LPS and INFγ. The spontaneous and M1-induced TNFα and IL-6 secretion were significantly reduced in BMDM derived from PON1-Tg vs. C57BL/6 mice. In vitro, PON1 dose-dependently attenuated both the spontaneous and M1-induced TNFα and IL-6 secretion, and contributed to the anti-inflammatory activity of HDL. Functionally, PON1 attenuated M1-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), phagocytosis, and necrotic macrophage death. PON1 anti-inflammatory activity was mediated, at least in part, via binding to SR-BI, but was independent of the enzyme catalytic activity or of cholesterol efflux stimulation, and did not involve binding to ABCA1. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrates, for the first time, that PON1 directly suppresses macrophage pro-inflammatory responses. These findings suggest that PON1 decreases sustained pro-inflammatory reactions, which subsequently can attenuate plaque progression.

Abstract
In the current study, we analysed free radicals scavenging activity of monocytes-macrophages in the absence or presence of antioxidants such as polyphenols or paraoxonase 1 (PON1). THP-1 human monocytic cell line, murine J774A.1 macrophages, as well as human primary monocytes have the capability to scavenge free radicals, as measured by the 1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) assay. This effect (which could be attributed to the cell's membrane) was cell number and incubation time dependent. Upon incubation of J774A.1 macrophages with acetylated LDL (Ac-LDL), with VLDL, or with the radical generator, AAPH, the cells' lipid peroxides content, and paraoxonase 2 (PON2) activity were significantly increased. While non-treated cells decreased DPPH absorbance by 65%, the Ac-LDL-, VLDL- or AAPH-treated cells, decreased it by only 33%, 30%, or 45%, respectively. We next analysed the effect of J774A.1 macrophage enrichment with antioxidants, such as polyphenols or PON1 on the cells' free radicals scavenging activity. Non-treated cells decreased DPPH absorbance by 50%, whereas vitamin E-, punicalagin- or PJ-treated cells significantly further decreased it, by 75%. Similarly, in PON1-treated cells DPPH absorbance was further decreased by 63%, in association with 23% increment in PON1 catalytic activity. In cells under oxidative stress [treated with AAPH-, or with oxidized LDL], PON1 activity was decreased by 31% or 40%, as compared to the activity observed in PON1 incubated with non-treated cells. We conclude that monocytes-macrophages possess free radicals scavenging activity, which is decreased under atherogenic conditions, and increased upon cell enrichment with potent antioxidants such as nutritional polyphenols, or PON1.

Abstract
We analyzed, for the first time, both in vitro and in vivo, the effect of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), or of pure triglycerides, on high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated paraoxonase1 (PON1) catalytic activities. Incubation of serum or HDL from healthy subjects with VLDL (0-330 μg protein/mL) significantly decreased serum PON1 lactonase or arylesterase activities by up to 11% or 24%, and HDL-associated PON1 lactonase or arylesterase activities by up to 32% or 46%, respectively, in a VLDL dose-dependent manner. VLDL (0-660 μg protein/mL) also inhibited recombinant PON1 (rePON1) lactonase or arylesterase activities by up to 20% or 42%, respectively. Similar inhibitory effect was noted upon rePON1 incubation with pure triglyceride emulsion. Bezafibrate therapy to three hypertriglyceridemic patients (400 mg/day, for one month) significantly decreased serum triglyceride concentration by 67%, and increased serum HDL cholesterol levels by 48%. PON1 arylesterase or paraoxonase activities in the patients' HDL fractions after drug therapy were significantly increased by 86-88%, as compared to PON1 activities before treatment. Similarly, HDL-PON1 protein levels significantly increased after bezafibrate therapy. Finally, bezafibrate therapy improved HDL biological activity, as HDL obtained after drug therapy showed increased ability to induce cholesterol efflux from J774A.1 macrophages, by 19%, as compared to HDL derived before therapy. We thus conclude that VLDL triglycerides inhibit PON1 catalytic activities, and bezafibrate therapy significantly improved HDL-PON1 catalytic and biological activities.

Abstract
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated serum enzyme thought to make a major contribution to the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacities of HDLs. However, the role of PON1 in the modulation of cholesterol efflux is poorly understood. The aim of our study was to investigate the involvement of PON1 in the regulation of cholesterol efflux, especially the mechanism by which it modulates HDL-mediated cholesterol transport. The enrichment of HDL(3) with human PON1 enhanced, in a dose-dependent manner, cholesterol efflux from THP-1 macrophage-like cells and ABCA1-enriched J774 macrophages. Moreover, an additive effect was observed when ABCA1-enriched J774 macrophages were incubated with both PON1 and apo-AI. Interestingly, PON1 alone was able to mediate cholesterol efflux from J774 macrophages and to upregulate ABCA1 expression on J774 macrophages. Immunofluorescence measurement showed an increase in PON1 levels in the cytoplasm of J774 macrophages overexpressing ABCA1. PON1 used an apo-AI-like mechanism to modulate cholesterol efflux from rapid and slow efflux pools derived from the lipid raft and nonraft domains of the plasma membrane, respectively. This was supported by the fact that ABCA1 protein was incrementally expressed by J774 macrophages within the first few hours of incubation with cholesterol-loaded J774 macrophages and that cyclodextrin significantly inhibited the capacity of PON1 to modulate cholesterol efflux from macrophages. This finding suggested that PON1 plays an important role in the antiatherogenic properties of HDLs and may exert its protective function outside the lipoprotein environment.

Abstract
In this review we summarize the findings from the literature and our own laboratory on the decreased PON1 activity in renal failure, the mechanisms proposed and the effect of interventions. In addition to profound alterations in lipoproteins, reduced serum PON1 activity has been clearly established in the past decade and could contribute to accelerated development of atherosclerosis in ESRD and in HD. PON1 lactonase activity is lower in ESRD patients. Hemodialysis partially restores PON1 lactonase and the other activities. PON1 activity recovery after dialysis suggests that uremic toxins may play a mechanistic role in PON1 inactivation. Lower PON1 activity in CRF patients is associated with low thiol concentration, high CRP, and is beneficially enhanced with vitamin C and flavonoids. Changes in HDL subclasses, namely lower HDL3 in these patients may also play a role in PON1 lower activity. Future research should focus on: (1) mechanistic studies on causes for low PON1 activity and mass; (2) prospective studies focusing on whether there is an added predictive value in measuring PON1 activity (and PON1 activity in HDL3) in this patient population; (3) intervention studies attempting to increase PON1 activity.

Abstract
Serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) was purified from bovine serum using hydrophobic interaction chromotography on Sepharose 4B-coupled l-tyrosine 1-naphthylamine gel, and monitored by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Paraoxonase enzyme was immobilized using different ratios of glutaraldehyde and the maximum activity was observed with 7% glutaraldehyde. The effects of inhibition by Mn(+2), Co(+2) and Cu(+2) heavy metals on the immobilized and free enzyme activities were studied. At the optimum pH and temperature, the K(m) and V(max) kinetic values for bovine serum paraoxonase and immobilized paraoxonase towards paraoxon substrate were determined as 0.296 × 10(-3) M & 37.04 EU vs. 0.727-10(-3) M & 36.36 EU, respectively.

Abstract
We analyzed, for the first time, the effects of recombinant PON1 (rePON1) intraperitoneal injection to C₅₇BL/6 mice on their HDL and macrophage antiatherogenic properties. Thioglycolate-treated mice were injected with either saline (Control), or rePON1 (50 μg/mouse), and 20 H post injection, their blood samples and peritoneal macrophages (MPM) were collected. A significant increase in serum and HDL-PON1 arylesterase and lactonase activities was noted. Similarly, a significant increment, by 3.8 and 2.8 fold, in MPM-PON1 arylesterase and lactonase activities, respectively, as compared to the activities in control MPM was observed. The HDL from rePON1-injected mice was resistant to oxidation by copper ions as compared to control HDL. Furthermore, enrichment of the mouse HDL with rePON1 increased its ability to induce cholesterol efflux from J774A.1 macrophage cell line, and to inhibit macrophage-mediated LDL oxidation. In MPM from rePON1-injected mice vs. control MPM, there was a significant reduction in cholesterol mass, by 42%, in association with inhibition in cellular cholesterol biosynthesis rate, by 33%, and with significant stimulation, by 65%, of human HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux from the cells. We conclude that rePON1 injection to mice improved the mice HDL and MPM antiatherogenic properties, and these effects could probably lead to attenuation of atherosclerosis development.

[PMID: 22067439 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2011.10.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2011] [Revised: 10/04/2011] [Accepted: 10/11/2011] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
AIM The aims of this study were to investigate whether purified PON1 can reduce the pro-inflammatory effect of oxidized phospholipids and whether the effect depended on its association with HDL. MAIN METHODS Lipid peroxidation was induced by copper ions and was measured using the conjugated diene method. Lysophosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC) formation was measured by HPLC with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) and ICAM-1 expression on Ea.hy926 endothelial cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. KEY FINDINGS Purified PON1 significantly inhibited copper-induced oxidation of LDL and HDL, causing a 60.5% and 77.7% decrease in conjugated diene formation, respectively. Incubating PON1 with oxLDL caused a significant increase in lyso-PC levels, while oxHDL caused a significant decrease. PON1 (12.5 to 50 μg/mL) had a pro-inflammatory effect in the presence of oxLDL, increasing ICAM-1 levels in Ea.hy926 cells by 33.0% and 40.6% (p<0.001) respectively, and had an anti-inflammatory effect in the presence of oxHDL, causing a 3-fold reduction in ICAM-1 levels. PON1 also caused a significant decrease in TNFα and purified lyso-PC-induced ICAM-1 expression. The results obtained with reconstituted HDL as well as LCAT and PAF-AH inhibitors suggested that the anti-inflammatory effect of PON1 against oxidized lipids is dependent on its association with HDL. SIGNIFICANCE Our results clearly showed that PON1 is involved in the anti-inflammatory effect of HDL and that the effect appears to depend on its association with HDL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze paraoxonase 1 (PON1) effect on monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation. METHODS AND RESULTS THP-1 monocytic cell-line and mouse peritoneal macrophages (MPM) were studied. Markers for monocytes differentiation included: morphological changes, CD11b and CD36 expression, and cellular oxidative stress. PON1KO MPM were more differentiated than control C57BL/6 MPM. Intraperitoneal injection of recombinant PON1 (rePON1) to C57BL/6 or to PON1KO mice significantly increased serum, MPM, and tissues PON1 activities. These effects were associated with a significant decrease in CD11b in C57BL/6 and PON1KO MPM (by 21% and 35%, respectively), in CD36 (by 35% and 38%, respectively), and in cellular total peroxides content (by 18% and 20%, respectively). rePON1 also significantly inhibited CD11b and CD36 expression, and cellular total peroxides during PMA-induced THP-1 monocytes differentiation, by 68%, 56% and 53%, respectively. Similar effects were observed upon using reconstituted HDL (rHDL) +rePON1, or human HDL +rePON1, in comparison to rHDL or to human HDL, as well as, HDL from C57BL/6 vs. PON1KO mice. Inhibition of monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation was demonstrated also by several dietary antioxidants such as vitamin E, gallic acid, or punicalagin (the major polyphenol in pomegranate). Whereas NADPH oxidase was not involved in PON1 anti-differentiation effect, mitochondrial complex I could be involved, as rotenone (complex I inhibitor) significantly decreased (by 77%) the expression of CD11b during THP-1 differentiation. Finally, blocking PON1 sulfhydryl group with N-ethylmalemide significantly attenuated PON1 inhibitory effect on THP-I monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation. CONCLUSION HDL-associated PON1 inhibits monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation, and this effect could be related to PON1 peroxidase-like activity which involves its free sulfhydryl group.

Abstract
Human atherosclerotic lesions contain oxidized lipids that facilitate further oxidation of macrophages, LDLs, and oxidative stress (OS)-sensitive markers and inhibit the antiatherogenic enzyme paraoxonase 1 (PON1). Our aim was to isolate and identify the oxidizing agent in a human atherosclerotic lesion lipid extract (LLE) and to explore the mechanisms of oxidation and of PON1's effect on the oxidizing agent. Of the five main fractions separated from the LLE, only fraction 2 (F2) promoted macrophage reactive oxygen species (ROS) production via a mechanism requiring mitochondrial involvement, whereas the NADPH oxidase system was not involved. Incubation of F2 with PON1 abridged the former's peroxide value and reduced its capacity to oxidize OS markers. The active agent was a triglyceride composed of palmitic, oleic, and linoleic acids, with 0.3% of its linoleic moiety in oxidized form. Incubation of either F2 or an identical synthetic triglyceride with PON1 reduced their ability to oxidize macrophages, without affecting cellular accumulation of triglycerides. We conclude that macrophage ROS production by LLE occurs in the presence of a specific triglyceride and requires mitochondrial involvement. Lipid peroxide in the triglyceride can also facilitate lipid autoxidation. Both atherogenic pathways are suppressed by PON1, which acts as an antiatherogenic element.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) production by adipose tissue is increased in obesity, and its circulating levels are high in type 2 diabetes. PAI-1 increases cardiovascular risk by favoring clot stability, interfering with vascular remodeling, or both. We investigated in obese diabetic persons whether an intensive lifestyle intervention for weight loss (ILI) would decrease PAI-1 levels independently of weight loss and whether PAI-1 reduction would be associated with changes in fibrinogen, an acute phase reactant, or fibrin fragment D-dimer (D-dimer), a marker of ambient coagulation balance. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined 1-year changes in PAI-1, D-dimer, and fibrinogen levels; adiposity; fitness; glucose; and lipid control with ILI in 1817 participants from Look AHEAD, a randomized trial investigating the effects of ILI, compared with usual care, on cardiovascular events in overweight or obese diabetic persons. Median PAI-1 levels decreased 29% with ILI and 2.5% with usual care (P < 0.0001). Improvements in fitness, glucose control, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were associated with decreased PAI-1, independently of weight loss (P = 0.03 for fitness, P < 0.0001 for others). Fibrinogen and D-dimer remained unchanged. CONCLUSIONS Reductions in PAI-1 levels with ILI in obese diabetic individuals may reflect an improvement in adipose tissue health that could affect cardiovascular risk without changing fibrinogen or d-dimer levels.

Abstract
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated serum enzyme thought to make a major contribution to the antioxidant capacity of the lipoprotein. In previous studies, we proposed that HDL promoted PON1 secretion by transfer of the enzyme from its plasma membrane location to HDL transiently anchored to the hepatocyte. This study examined whether PON1 can be transferred into cell membranes and retain its enzymatic activities and functions. Using Chinese hamster ovary and human endothelial cells, we found that recombinant PON1 as well as PON1 associated with purified human HDL was freely exchanged between the external medium and the cell membranes. Transferred PON1 was located in the external face of the plasma membrane of the cells in an enzymatically active form. The transfer of PON1 led to a gain of function by the target cells, as revealed by significantly reduced susceptibility to oxidative stress and significantly increased ability to neutralize the bacterial virulence agent 3-oxo-C(12)-homoserine lactone. The data demonstrate that PON1 is not a fixed component of HDL and suggest that the enzyme could also exert its protective functions outside the lipoprotein environment. The observations may be of relevance to tissues exposed to oxidative stress and/or bacterial infection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine whether the beneficial effects of PJ consumption by mice on their macrophages are mediated via PJ-induced increment in serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity and/or in macrophage PON2 expression. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed studies in peritoneal macrophages (MPM) from C57BL/6 control mice, or from PON1KO mice, or from PON2KO mice that consumed PJ (200 microg of gallic acid equivalents/mouse/day, for 1 month period). PJ consumption by C57BL/6 mice resulted in a significant increment, by 36% in serum PON1 catalytic activities, and upregulated MPM PON2 expression. In MPM from C57BL/6 or from PON1KO mice that consumed PJ, the extent of cell-mediated LDL oxidation was decreased by 22%, and that of cellular superoxide release by 20-26%. In contrast, PJ consumption by PON2KO mice resulted in a minimal inhibitory effect on macrophage oxidative stress by only 4-9%. Unlike PJ antioxidative effects in MPM, PJ anti-atherogenic effects on MPM cholesterol and triglyceride metabolism were similar in all mice groups that consumed PJ. After PJ consumption, cellular cholesterol content was decreased by 14-19%, and this could be attributed to a significant inhibition in MPM cholesterol biosynthesis rate by 20-32%, and/or to stimulation of HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux from the cells by 22-37%. Similarly, MPM triglyceride content and triglyceride biosynthesis rate were both significantly decreased after PJ consumption, by 16-27% and by 22-28%, respectively. CONCLUSION PJ consumption antioxidative properties on mouse macrophages, but not PJ beneficial effects on macrophage cholesterol and triglyceride metabolism, are mediated via PJ-induced stimulation of macrophage PON2 expression. Serum PON1 stimulation by PJ consumption, however, was not involved in PJ-induced effects on macrophages.

Abstract
Human paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated serum enzyme that exhibits a broad substrate specificity. In addition to protecting against exposure to some organophosphorus (OP) pesticides by hydrolyzing their toxic oxon metabolites, PON1 is important in protecting against vascular disease by metabolizing oxidized lipids. Recently, PON1 has also been shown to play a role in inactivating the quorum sensing factor N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-l-homoserine lactone (3OC12-HSL) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Native, untagged engineered recombinant human PON1 (rHuPON1) expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by conventional column chromatographic purification is stable, active, and capable of protecting PON1 knockout mice (PON1(-/-)) from exposure to high levels of the OP compound diazoxon. The bacterially derived rHuPON1 can be produced in large quantities and lacks the glycosylation of eukaryotic systems that can produce immunogenic complications when inappropriately glycosylated recombinant proteins are used as therapeutics. Previous studies have shown that the determination of PON1 status, which reveals both PON1(192) functional genotype and serum enzyme activity level, is required for a meaningful evaluation of PON1's role in risk of disease or exposure. We have developed a new two-substrate assay/analysis protocol that provides PON1 status without use of toxic OP substrates, allowing for use of this protocol in non-specialized laboratories. Factors were also determined for inter-converting rates of hydrolysis of different substrates. PON1 status also plays an important role in revealing changes in HDL-associated PON1 activities in male patients with Parkinson disease (PD). Immunolocalization studies of PONs 1, 2 and 3 in nearly all mouse tissues suggest that the functions of PONs 1 and 3 extend beyond the plasma and the HDL particle.

Abstract
Macrophage cholesterol accumulation and foam cell formation is the hallmark of early atherogenesis. In addition to macrophages, at least three more major players regulate atherosclerosis development; paraoxonase 1 (PON1), antioxidants, and HDL. PON1 is an HDL-associated lactonase which posses antioxidant and anti-atherogenic properties. PON1 protects against macrophage-mediated LDL oxidation, and increases HDL binding to macrophages which, in turn, stimulates HDL's ability to promote cholesterol efflux. These two major anti-atherogenic properties of HDL (and of PON1) require, at least in part, macrophage binding sites for HDL-associated PON1. Indeed, PON1, as well as HDL-associated PON1, specifically binds to macrophages, leading to anti-atherogenic effects. Macrophage PON1 binding sites may thus be a target for future cardioprotection therapy. Studying the interactions among PON1, antioxidants, and macrophages can thus assist in achieving appropriate treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Increased oxidative stress is a characteristic of patients with high risk for atherosclerosis development (hypercholesterolemic, hypertensive, diabetic), and the above phenomenon was shown to be associated with attenuated antioxidative status. The increased oxidative stress in atherosclerotic patients is present in their blood, as well as in their arterial wall cells, including macrophages, the hallmark of foam cells formation during early atherogenesis. Serum high density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated paraoxonase 1 (PON1) reduces oxidative stress in lipoproteins, in macrophages, and in the atherosclerotic lesion, whereas paraoxonase 2 (PON2, which is present in tissues, but not in serum) acts as an antioxidant at the cellular and not humoral level. Both PON1 and PON2 protect against atherosclerosis development, and this phenomenon could be related to their antioxidative properties. The use of nutritional antioxidants such as vitamin E, carotenoids (lycopene and beta-carotene), and mainly polyphenols (such as those present in red wine, licorice root ethanolic extract, or in pomegranate) by atherosclerotic animals and also by cardiovascular patients, leads to a reduction in oxidative stress and to the attenuation of atherosclerosis development. These latter phenomena could be related to the nutritional antioxidants-induced increase in HDL PON1 activity (effects on gene expression, on preventing enzyme inactivation, and on increasing PON1 stability through its binding to HDL), as well as an increase in macrophage PON2 activation (at the gene expression level).
