Impaired HDL-associated enzymes and proteins in children and adolescents with weight disorders and their association with novel cardiometabolic indexes. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2023; 33:2517-2526. [PMID: 37793940 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2023.08.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Overweight/obesity (OW/OB) is associated with modifications in lipoprotein (Lp)-associated enzymes and proteins, such as cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), Lp-associated phospholipase A2 (LpPLA2) and paraoxonase (PON)1. No evidence is available regarding underweight (UW). The following indexes have been proposed to better assess atherogenic risk related to weight alterations: triglycerides-glucose index (TyG), visceral adiposity index (VAI) and height-corrected lipid accumulation product (HLAP). AIM To analyze the presence of alterations in Lp-associated enzymes and proteins in children and adolescents with UW and OW/OB and their relation to novel cardiometabolic indexes. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty male children and adolescents with UW, 66 with normal weight (NW) and 30 with OW/OB were included. Anthropometric parameters, glucose, Lp profile and the activities of CETP, LpPLA2 and PON1 were evaluated. Body mass index (BMI)-z, TyG, VAI and HLAP were calculated. UW and NW showed lower CETP activity than OW/OB (Mean ± SD) (218 ± 38vs.224 ± 26vs.237 ± 26%/mL.h; p < 0.05). UW and OW/OB showed lower PON1 activity than NW (318 ± 170vs.409 ± 200vs.310 ± 184 nmol/mL.min; p < 0.05). TyG was higher in OW/OB than UW (p < 0.01), whilst both HLAP (p < 0.05) and VAI (p < 0.01) followed a linear trend across weight categories. After adjusting for age and BMI-z, TyG was an independent predictor of CETP (r2 = 0.25, β = -0.22, p < 0.01) and LpPLA2 (r2 = 0.21,β = -0.21,p < 0.05), while VAI (r2 = 0.21,β = -0.32,p < 0.01) and HLAP (r2 = 0.20,β = -0.31,p < 0.01) of CETP. CONCLUSIONS Both UW and OW/OB showed impaired antioxidant PON1 activity. Moreover, TyG, VAI and HLAP were all capable of predicting alterations in crucial modulators of Lp metabolism and vascular inflammation in children and adolescents with varying degrees of alterations in body weight.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress increases oxidizability of apolipoprotein-B containing lipoproteins and decreases paraoxonase (PON) activity in hemodialysis (HD) patients and plays an important part in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. In HD patients, plasma ascorbic acid (AA) levels are decreased either due to the loss by hemodialysis membranes or due to malnutrition and contribute to the imbalance of antioxidant defense mechanisms. We hypothesized that long-term ascorbic acid (AA) supplementation recovers oxidizability of lipoproteins in HD patients by reinforcing PON activity. METHODS Twenty-nine adult patients were treated with 100mg and 500mg AA at the end of each HD session thrice a week for two consecutive 16 weeks-periods, respectively. Blood samples were obtained before the first HD session and prior to the first HD sessions following the 100mg AA-supplemented and the 500mg AA-supplemented periods. RESULTS PON activities were significantly increased after 100mg (p<0.05) and 500mg AA (p<0.001) supplementation periods compared to the basal level. Apo-B lipoprotein oxidizability (Δ-MDA) was significantly decreased after 500mg AA supplementation compared to both basal (p<0.05) and 100mg AA supplementation periods (p<0.05). Plasma AA concentrations were negatively correlated with Δ-MDA levels (R=-0.327; p<0.01). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that long-term parenteral 500mg AA supplementation improves PON activity alleviating apo B-containing lipoproteins oxidizability in HD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Childhood obesity is associated to complications such as insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. High density lipoproteins (HDL) constitute the only lipoprotein fraction with ateroprotective properties. The aim of the present study was to analyze inflammatory markers, carbohydrate metabolism, lipid profile and HDL functionality in obese children and adolescents compared to healthy controls. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty obese children and adolescents (Body mass index z score >3.0) (9-15 years old) and 20 age and sex similar controls were included in the study. Triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, LDL-C, apolipoproteins (apo) A-I and B, glucose and insulin levels were quantified. Lipid indexes and HOMA-IR were calculated. Cholesterol efflux (CEC), lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase (LCAT) and cholesteryl ester transfer protein, plus paraoxonase and arylesterase (ARE) activities were evaluated. Obese children and adolescents showed significantly higher TG [69 (45-95) vs 96 (76-121); p < 0.05], non-HDL-C [99 ± 34 vs 128 ± 26; p < 0.01], TC/HDL-C [2.8 ± 0.6 vs 4.7 ± 1.5; p < 0.01], TG/HDL-C [1.1 (1.0-1.8) vs 2,2 (1.4-3.2); p < 0.01], and HOMA-IR [1.5 (1.1-1.9) vs. 2.6 (2.0-4.5); p < 0.01] values, plus Lp-PLA2 activity [8.3 ± 1.9 vs 7.1 ± 1.7 umol/ml.h; p < 0,05] in addition to lower HDL-C [57 ± 10 vs 39 ± 9; p < 0.01], apo A-I [143 ± 25 vs 125 ± 19; p < 0.05], and CEC [6.4 (5.1-6.8) vs. 7.8 (5.7-9.5); p < 0.01] plus LCAT [12.6 ± 3.3 vs 18.7 ± 2.6; p < 0.05] and ARE [96 ± 19 vs. 110 ± 19; p < 0.05] activities. Lp-PLA2 activity correlated with LDL-C (r = 0.72,p < 0.01), non-HDL-C (r = 0.76,p < 0.01), and apo B (r = 0.60,p < 0.01). LCAT activity correlated with triglycerides (r = -0.78,p < 0.01), HDL-C (r = 0.64,p < 0.01), and apo A-I (r = 0.62, p < 0.05). ARE activity correlated with HDL-C (r = 0.32,p < 0.05) and apoA-I (r = 0.43,p < 0.01). CEC was negatively associated with BMI z-score (r = -0.36,p < 0.05), and triglycerides (r = -0.28,p < 0.05), and positively with LCAT activity (r = 0.65,p < 0.05). In multivariate analysis, BMI z-score was the only parameter significantly associated to CEC (r2 = 0.43, beta = -0.38, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The obese group showed alterations in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, which were associated to the presence of vascular specific inflammation and impairment of HDL atheroprotective capacity. These children and adolescents would present qualitative alterations in their lipoproteins which would determine higher risk of suffering premature cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to examine the relation between the PON1 polymorphisms and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). METHODS In a cross-sectional study, blood samples were collected from 100 females. DNA was extracted and PON1 genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. RESULTS Regarding PON1 L55M, the mutated allele (M) frequency was found in 70.5% in RPL and in 53.5% in controls; the M allele was significantly associated with an increased risk of RPL (adjusted odds ratio [ORadj] = 2.07; 95% confidence interval [CI]; p < 0.001). However, regarding PON1 Q192R, the R mutated allele frequency was found in 28.5% in RPL and in 33% in controls. The R allele did not show any risk for RPL (ORadj 0.81; 95%CI; p = 0.329). CONCLUSION The present study suggests that there is an effect of genetic polymorphism on RPL and provides additional evidence that combines with the growing information about the ways in which certain PON1 genotypes can affect the development of the fetus in the uterus.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a multifaceted and costly disease, which requires serious attention. Finding a cheaper anti-diabetic alternative that can act on multiple disease-related targets and pathways is the ultimate treatment goal for DM. Nanotechnology has offered some exciting possibilities in biomedical and drug delivery applications. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs), a novel agent to deliver zinc, have great implications in many disease therapies including DM. This review summarizes the pharmacological mechanisms by which ZnO-NPs alleviate DM and diabetic complications. Research implications and future perspectives were also discussed.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine serum lipid values and parameters of oxidative stress in blood and milk of cows with subclinical mastitis (SCM) caused by Staphylococcus aureus and to establish association between these parameters. The study was performed on total of 104 cows assigned into control group of healthy animals (n = 12) and two groups of cows with SCM, either SCM1 group (n = 37) with ˂ 1000 CFU/mL of S. aureus or SCM2 group (n = 55) with ≥1000 CFU/mL of causative agent in milk. Significantly lower serum concentrations of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDLC) in SCM2 group and higher low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) in both SCM groups were recorded. Significantly lower paraoxonase-1 (PON1) activity and higher lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) concentration in blood and milk were recorded in both groups of SCM cows vs control. In blood serum of cows from SCM2 group significantly higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde (MDA), but significantly lower total antioxidative capacity (TAC) were obtained. In milk serum of SCM cows were detected significantly higher concentrations of H2O2 and MDA, but significantly lower TAC vs control. There was a significant positive correlation between PON1 in serum with HDLC, but negative correlation with LDL-C and LOOH. In milk, PON1 negatively correlated with LOOH and somatic cell counts (SCC). Strong positive correlation was obtained between PON1 in blood and milk. Oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction induced by SCM significantly lowered PON1 activity in blood and milk of affected cows.

Daytime restricted feeding modifies the daily regulation of fatty acid β-oxidation and the lipoprotein profile in rats. Br J Nutr 2017; 117:930-941.

Abstract
Daytime restricted feeding (2 h of food access from 12.00 to 14.00 hours for 3 weeks) is an experimental protocol that modifies the relationship between metabolic networks and the circadian molecular clock. The precise anatomical locus that controls the biochemical and physiological adaptations to optimise nutrient use is unknown. We explored the changes in liver oxidative lipid handling, such as β-oxidation and its regulation, as well as adaptations in the lipoprotein profile. It was found that daytime restricted feeding promoted an elevation of circulating ketone bodies before mealtime, an altered hepatic daily rhythmicity of 14CO2 production from radioactive palmitic acid, and an up-regulation of the fatty acid oxidation activators, the α-subunit of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), the deacetylase silent mating type information regulation homolog 1, and the transcriptional factor PPARγ-1α coactivator. An increased localisation of phosphorylated α-subunit of AMPK in the periportal hepatocytes was also observed. Liver hepatic lipase C, important for lipoprotein transformation, showed a change of daily phase with a peak at the time of food access. In serum, there was an increase of LDL, which was responsible for a net elevation of circulating cholesterol. We conclude that our results indicate an enhanced fasting response in the liver during daily synchronisation to food access, which involves altered metabolic and cellular control of fatty acid oxidation as well a significant elevation of serum LDL. These adaptations could be part of the metabolic input that underlies the expression of the food-entrained oscillator.

Abstract
Abstract
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an arylesterase associated with serum high density lipoprotein particles. Its name is derived from hydrolyzing one of several organophosphate compounds, namely paraoxon. Recent studies have shown that PON1 plays a protective role in diseases associated with oxidative stress such as atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus. Studies have demonstrated reduction-oxidative state changes involving PON1 in humans and laboratory animal models. Although there is less information about the role of this enzyme in veterinary medicine, new data suggest that PON1 might be a new oxidative stress marker in animal patients, similarly to humans.

Abstract
Some of the medications used for the management of schizophrenia are associated with clinically significant increases in weight and adverse alterations in serum lipid levels. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of short-term (two months) treatment with atypical anti-psychotics on coronary heart disease risk factors, including the functional properties of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), in psychiatric patients. Nineteen patients diagnosed with schizophrenia, schizoaffective, and bipolar disorder and ten healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study. In the present study blood was drawn at baseline and after two months of atypical anti-psychotic treatment. Wilcoxon non-parametric-test was used to examine differences in the psychotic group before and two months after treatment.Waist circumference and oxidative stress in psychiatric patients were higher compared with the control group. Serum-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity was lower in psychotic patients compared to controls. Two months of anti-psychotic therapy was associated with increased abdominal obesity, decreased paraoxonase lactonase activity, but with no further change in serum-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages. Psychotic patients have low serum-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages as a parameter of HDL functionality. Atypical anti-psychotic treatment for two months increased metabolic derangements in these patients but without further decrement in serum-mediated cholesterol efflux.

Abstract
HDL-associated paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity has been consistently associated with cardiovascular and other diseases. Vitamins C and E intake have previously been positively associated with PON1 in a subset of the Carotid Lesion Epidemiology and Risk (CLEAR) cohort. The goal of this study was to replicate these findings and determine whether other nutrient intake affected PON1 activity. To predict nutrient and mineral intake values, 1,402 subjects completed a standardized food frequency survey of their dietary habits over the past year. Stepwise regression was used to evaluate dietary and covariate effects on PON1 arylesterase activity. Five dietary components, cholesterol (P < 2.0 × 10(-16)), alcohol (P = 8.51 × 10(-8)), vitamin C (P = 7.97 × 10(-5)), iron (P = 0.0026), and folic acid (0.037) were independently predictive of PON1 activity. Dietary cholesterol was positively associated and predicted 5.5% of PON1 activity, second in variance explained. This study presents a novel finding of dietary cholesterol, iron, and folic acid predicting PON1 activity in humans and confirms prior reported associations, including that with vitamin C. Identifying and understanding environmental factors that affect PON1 activity is necessary to understand its role and that of HDL in human disease.

Human serum paraoxonase-1 (PON1), an enzyme on HDL prevents oxidation of LDL thereby preventing the development of atherosclerosis. Studies done so far have lead to conflicting results. As studies are lacking in North-West Indian Punjabi's, a distinct ethnic group with high incidence of coronary artery disease, we determined PONase activity in this population. It has been postulated that sudden lowering of serum PONase may lead to precipitation of acute myocardial infarction. We determined serum PONase activity and lipids in 100 patients each of AMI (within 24 h of onset), stable CAD and 100 age and sex matched healthy controls. These were again determined after 6 weeks in AMI patients. The mean serum PONase activity was lowest in AMI patients (23.26 U/ml) followed by stable CAD patients (102.0 U/ml) where as in controls was highest (179.8 U/ml). In patients with AMI, activity was significantly higher at 6 weeks as compared to that after acute event (49.39 %; p < 0.05). Sudden lowering of serum PONase activity in a population which already has lower activity may be one of the risk factors for development of AMI.

Abstract
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1), a component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), is a calcium-dependent multifunctional enzyme that connects metabolisms of lipoproteins and homocysteine (Hcy). Both PON1 and Hcy have been implicated in human diseases, including atherosclerosis and neurodegeneration. The involvement of Hcy in disease could be mediated through its interactions with PON1. Due to its ability to reduce oxidative stress, PON1 contributes to atheroprotective functions of HDL in mice and humans. Although PON1 has the ability to hydrolyze a variety of substrates, only one of them-Hcy-thiolactone-is known to occur naturally. In humans and mice, Hcy-thiolactonase activity of PON1 protects against N-homocysteinylation, which is detrimental to protein structure and function. PON1 also protects against neurotoxicity associated with hyperhomocysteinemia in mouse models. The links between PON1 and Hcy in relation to pathological states such as coronary artery disease, stroke, diabetic mellitus, kidney failure and Alzheimer's disease that emerge from recent studies are the topics of this review.

Additional Common Polymorphisms in the PON Gene Cluster Predict PON1 Activity but Not Vascular Disease. J Lipids 2012; 2012:476316.

Abstract
Background. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) enzymatic activity has been consistently predictive of cardiovascular disease, while the genotypes at the four functional polymorphisms at PON1 have not. The goal of this study was to identify additional variation at the PON gene cluster that improved prediction of PON1 activity and determine if these variants predict carotid artery disease (CAAD). Methods. We considered 1,328 males in a CAAD cohort. 51 tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (tag SNPs) across the PON cluster were evaluated to determine their effects on PON1 activity and CAAD status. Results. Six SNPs (four in PON1 and one each in PON2/3) predicted PON1 arylesterase (AREase) activity, in addition to the four previously known functional SNPs. In total, the 10 SNPs explained 30.1% of AREase activity, 5% of which was attributable to the six identified predictive SNPs. We replicate rs854567 prediction of 2.3% of AREase variance, the effects of rs3917510, and a PON3 haplotype that includes rs2375005. While AREase activity strongly predicted CAAD, none of the 10 SNPs predicting AREase predicted CAAD. Conclusions. This study identifies new genetic variants that predict additional PON1 AREase activity. Identification of SNPs associated with PON1 activity is required when evaluating the many phenotypes associated with genetic variation near PON1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an esterase associated with the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in serum. To date, there have been few reports about circulating PON1 protein concentration and specific activity in subjects with metabolic syndrome (MetS). More importantly, it is unknown whether weight loss could alter PON1 protein expression or specific activity in obese non-diabetic men with MetS. METHODS We prospectively enrolled a total of 40 obese non-diabetic men with MetS. Among them, 22 subjects finished the 3-month course of weight loss program and complied for longer follow-ups post-weight loss at the 3rd, 12th, and 18th month from the beginning of the program. Twenty-six healthy volunteers served as controls. Serum circulating PON1 concentration was measured by an enzyme linked immunosorbent kit (ELISA) and PON1 activity was measured by an automated PON1 activity assay. RESULTS Obese non-diabetic men with MetS (n=40) had a higher PON1 protein concentration (31.0 ± 11.3 vs. 24.8 ± 9.7 μg/ml, p=0.025) but lower specific enzyme activity (7.5 ± 4.0 vs. 11.2 ± 7.2 mU/μg, p=0.023) than those of the controls. Multivariate regression analysis of baseline PON1 specific activity revealed that adiponectin was a significant positive predictor (p=0.044) while monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) was a negative predictor (p=0.031). After a 3-month weight loss program, obese MetS men (n=22) had a significant weight reduction (95.8 ± 9.0 to 86.3 ± 10.4 kg, with a 9.9 ± 5.4% decrease, p<0.001). PON1 protein decreased significantly after weight loss and kept declining through the 3rd month till the 18th month follow-up. PON1 specific enzyme activity (baseline 7.5 ± 2.6 mU/μg) increased significantly after weight loss and kept increasing through the 12th month till the 18th month follow-ups (11.8 ± 6.4 mU/μg, p=0.001 vs. baseline). CONCLUSIONS Weight loss by a 3-month diet and exercise program time-sequentially increased PON1 specific enzyme activity in obese non-diabetic men with MetS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human serum paraoxonase-1 (PON1) prevents oxidation of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and hydrolyzes the oxidized form, therefore preventing the development of atherosclerosis. The polymorphisms of PON1 gene are known to affect the PON1 activity and thereby coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. As studies are lacking in North-West Indian Punjabi's, a distinct ethnic group with high incidence of CAD, we determined PON1 activity, genotypes and haplotypes in this population and correlated them with the risk of CAD. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS 350 angiographically proven (≥ 70% stenosis) CAD patients and 300 healthy controls were investigated. PON1 activity was determined towards paraoxon (Paraoxonase; PONase) and phenylacetate (Arylesterase; AREase) substrates. In addition, genotyping was carried out by using multiplex PCR, allele specific oligonucleotide -PCR and PCR-RFLP methods and haplotyping was determined by PHASE software. The serum PONase and AREase activities were significantly lower in CAD patients as compared to the controls. All studied polymorphisms except L55M had significant effect on PONase activity. However AREase activity was not affected by them. In a logistic regression model, after adjustment for the conventional risk factors for CAD, QR (OR: 2.73 (1.57-4.72)) and RR (OR, 16.24 (6.41-41.14)) genotypes of Q192R polymorphism and GG (OR: 2.07 (1.02-4.21)) genotype of -162A/G polymorphism had significantly higher CAD risk. Haplotypes L-T-G-Q-C (OR: 3.25 (1.72-6.16)) and L-T-G-R-G (OR: 2.82 (1.01-7.80)) were also significantly associated with CAD. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion this study shows that CAD patients had lower PONase and AREase activities as compared to the controls. The coding Q192R polymorphism, promoter -162A/G polymorphism and L-T-G-Q-C and L-T-G-R-G haplotypes are all independently associated with CAD.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to elucidate the participation of plasma PON1 (paraoxonase activity [PON] and arylesterase activity [ARE]) in antioxidant defense in response to a single bout of maximal exercise. PON, ARE, lipid profile, lipid peroxidation (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances [TBARS]), total antioxidant status (ferric reducing ability of plasma [FRAP]), concentration of uric acid [UA], and total bilirubin (TBil) were determined in the plasma before, at the bout and 2 h after maximal exercise on a treadmill in young sportsmen. Chosen physiological parameters also were controlled during maximal exercise. Following maximal exercise, the unaltered level of TBARS and increased FRAP were registered. ARE increment was the highest (37.6%) of all measured variables but lasted for a short time. UA increment was lower than ARE but long-lasting and correlated with FRAP. PON activity increment was associated with the combined effect of body weight, lean, body mass index (BMI) and basal metabolic rate (BMR). We conclude that PON1 is a co-factor of the first line of antioxidant defense during maximal exercise. Its activity is associated with body composition and not the physical fitness of the subjects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the association between PON1 polymorphism, PON1 activity, oxidative susceptibility of LDL and coronary artery disease in Egyptians. METHODS PON1 polymorphism, serum PON1 activity, lipoprotein oxidation susceptibility and lipid profile were measured. RESULTS Levels of HDL and paraoxonase activity were significantly decreased in CAD patients compared to control group, and in patients with three vessels compared to those of single or two vessels disease. High-activity allele (R) has a more atherogenic lipid profile than for the low activity allele (Q). PON1 RR genotype has nine fold risks to develop CAD in Egyptians while those with PON1 QR genotype have four fold risks. CONCLUSION The PON1 activity is lower in subject with CAD and there is a significant relationship between activity of PON1 and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis. Also, we provide evidence of a significant association between R allele of the PON1 polymorphism and the development of coronary artery disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although there is evidence from animal studies of impaired reproductive function by exposure to organophosphates (OP), the effects on birth weight have not been sufficiently evaluated in epidemiological studies. Paraoxonase (PON1) detoxifies organophosphates by cleavage of active oxons. Some PON1 gene polymorphisms could reduce the enzyme activity and increase susceptibility to OP toxicity. OBJECTIVE To assess the association between maternal exposure to floriculture during pregnancy and the risk of low birth weight (<2500 g) in their offspring, as well as to evaluate the interaction between this exposure and maternal genotype for PON1 Q192R polymorphisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross sectional study was carried out in two Mexican states (States of Mexico and Morelos) with high frequencies of greenhouse activity. We interviewed and collected blood samples from 264 females (floriculturists or partners of floricultural workers) who became pregnant during the 10 years prior to the interview. The questionnaire measured socioeconomic characteristics, tobacco and alcohol consumption, diseases and occupational and reproductive history. We also applied a food frequency questionnaire. Information was obtained pertaining to 467 pregnancies. DNA was extracted from white cells, and PON1 genotype was determined by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism for Q192R polymorphisms. Results were analyzed with generalized estimating equations models. RESULTS After adjusting for potential confounders, we detected a statistically significant interaction between maternal exposure to flower growing work during pregnancy and PON1 Q192R polymorphisms on risk of low birth weight. The risk of having a baby with LBW is nearly six times higher if a mother is a floriculture worker during pregnancy and has PON1 192RR genotype (OR 5.93, 95% CI 1.28, 27.5). CONCLUSION These results suggest that the interaction between maternal floriculture work during pregnancy and 192RR PON1 genotype increases the probability of having children with LBW.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paraoxonase enzyme was first identified as a protective barrier against organophosphorus poisoning. After painstaking research spanning the last three decades, the knowledge about this enzyme has increased immensely. The present review attempts to elaborate the role of paraoxonase enzyme in normal physiology as well as provide an overview of the various disorders in which the enzyme may have a role in etiopathogenesis. METHODS The literature was searched from the websites of the National Library of Medicine (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) and Pub Med Central, the U.S. National Library of Medicine's digital archive of life sciences journal literature. RESULTS Paraoxonase acts as an important antioxidant enzyme against oxidative stress. The enzyme has been implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of disorders including cardiovascular disorders, cancers etc. CONCLUSIONS A better understanding of the molecular mechanism of the enzyme along with the regulatory circuits will help us to utilize agonists to potentiate the anti oxidant actions of the enzyme.

Abstract
Paraoxonase (PON1) enzyme is associated with high-density lipoproteins (HDL) that prevents low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. PON1Q192R polymorphism is associated with a risk of coronary heart disease and low HDL levels in case-control studies, but the issue is yet unresolved. Mexico has shown an increase in cardiovascular diseases, and some genetic factors may play a role. Our purpose was to evaluate the association between PON1Q192R and L55M polymorphisms and serum lipid profile in a healthy Mexican population. Ninety unrelated male inhabitants from southeastern Mexico with Mayan ascendancy agreed to participate. Demographic characteristics, lifestyle and medical history were obtained by questionnaire. Lipid profile was determined by enzymatic methods, PON1 activity by using paraoxon and phenylacetate and PON1 genotype by real-time PCR. HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were associated with genotype: 192RR homozygote subjects had lower HDL-C levels than 192QQ homozygotes, and individuals with 192RR and 192QR genotypes had an odds ratio (OR)=7.05 (95% confidence interval (CI)=1.29-38.34) of having HDL-C <60 mg/dL. Individuals with higher paraoxonase activity (>600.18 U/L) had a slight risk (OR=4.9, 95% CI=0.83-22.02) of having HDL-C <60 mg/dL. PON155LM polymorphism was associated with higher LDL-cholesterol. PON1Q192R polymorphism showed a role in modulating lipid profile: 192RR homozygotes showed the least favorable lipoprotein levels.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate serum paraoxonase/arylesterase activities and oxidation/oxidizability of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and several coronary artery disease risk factors, including homocysteine, high sensitive C-reactive protein, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, leptin and adiponectin in patients with schizophrenia. Oxidation of lipoproteins plays an important role in atherogenesis, and the enzyme paraoxonase has been shown to prevent lipoprotein oxidation. Furthermore, low paraoxonase activity has been suggested to predict coronary artery disease. Forty patients who fully met the fourth Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders criteria for schizophrenia and 35 healthy control subjects were included in the study. Serum paraoxonase/arylesterase activities were determined spectrophotometrically. Malondialdehyde levels of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins were determined before and after incubation with copper-sulphate, which yielded basal- and Delta-malondialdehyde values, respectively. Homocysteine and highly sensitive C-reactive protein levels were determined using a fluorescence-polarization immunoassay and immunonephelometry, respectively. Leptin and adiponectin levels were measured with radioimmunoassay and tumour necrosis factor-alpha was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were significantly lower and Delta-malondialdehyde levels were significantly higher in the schizophrenia group compared with the control group. However, there were not any significant differences in other parameters of the study between the study groups. There was a significant increase in body mass index and serum triglyceride and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in the schizophrenic group after 6 weeks of treatment. These parameters were significantly increased in patients treated with atypical antipsychotics but not in patients treated with typic or long acting antipsychotics. The results of the present study suggest that patients with schizophrenia might have increased risk for coronary artery disease related to reduced serum paraoxonase activity and increased oxidizability of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins.

Abstract
1. Hypothyroidism is accompanied by hyperlipidaemia and oxidative stress and is associated with several complications, such as atherosclerosis. Paraoxonase activity has been reported to decrease in several situations associated with atherosclerosis and oxidative stress. In the present study, the effects of different doses of taurine on serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities, as well as on the serum lipid profile, were investigated in hypothyroid rats. 2. Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups as follows: Group 1, rats received normal rat chow and tap water; Group 2, rats received standard rat chow + 0.05% propylthiouracil (PTU) in the drinking water; and Groups 3-5, taurine-supplemented PTU groups (standard rat chow + 0.5, 2 or 3% taurine in the drinking water, respectively, in addition to PTU). Paraoxon or phenylacetate were used as substrates to measure paraoxonase and arylesterase activity, respectively. Plasma and tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, indicators of lipid peroxidation, were determined using the thiobarbituric-acid reactive substances method. Serum triglyceride, total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (following precipitation with dextran sulphate-magnesium chloride) were determined using enzymatic methods. 3. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were increased and plasma and tissue MDA levels and serum triglyceride levels were reduced in a dose-dependent manner in taurine-treated hypothyroid rats. Taurine concentrations were positively correlated with enzyme activities and negatively correlated with MDA and triglyceride levels. 4. Further studies are needed to investigate the role of taurine supplementation in hypothyroidism in human subjects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alterations in plasma lipoprotein subclass distributions affect atherosclerosis risk. Smaller, denser low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles (sdLDL) are more susceptible to oxidation. In contrast, most of the protective effects of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) are attributable to larger particles. This study investigates the connection between LDL and HDL particle heterogeneity and oxidative stress, antioxidative defence (AOD) and paraoxonase (PON1) status in a healthy middle-aged Serbian population. MATERIALS AND METHODS LDL and HDL particle sizes and subclass distributions were measured by gradient gel electrophoresis in 104 men and 103 women, aged 53 +/- 9.4 years. PON1 activities and PON1(Q192R) phenotypes were determined with paraoxon and diazoxon as substrates. The oxidative stress/AOD status was estimated by measuring malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide-anion (O2*(-)) levels and superoxide-dismutase (SOD) activity. RESULTS Subjects with sdLDL had significantly higher MDA (P < 0.001) and O2*(-)(P < 0.05) levels and greater diazoxonase (DZOase) activity (P < 0.05) compared to subjects with larger LDL particles. A high MDA concentration was a significant predictor of the sdLDL phenotype (P < 0.005). Increased levels of and MDA were associated with smaller HDL(3) subclass abundance. Reduced HDL particle size was associated with lower DZOase activity (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Even in the absence of symptoms of atherosclerosis, sdLDL particles are associated with increased oxidative stress, which may stimulate a compensatory rise in PON1 DZOase activity. Elevated oxidative stress may significantly affect HDL subclass distribution, resulting in the accumulation of smaller, denser HDL particles with diminished antioxidative capacity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vanadyl sulfate (VS) and taurine are two promising agents in the treatment of diabetes related to their antihyperglycemic, antihyperlipidemic, and hyperinsulinemic effects. Data about the effects of VS on the oxidant-antioxidant system is limited and controversial. However, taurine is a well-documented antioxidant agent and our aim was to investigate the effects of VS, taurine and VS and taurine combination on the oxidative-antioxidative systems in streptozotocin-nicotinamide (STZ-NA) diabetic rats. METHODS Nicotinamide (230 mg/kg, i.p.) and streptozotocin (65 mg/kg, i.p.) were administered. VS (0.75 mg/mL) and taurine (1%) were added to drinking water for 5 weeks. Rats were divided as control (C), diabetes (D), diabetes+VS (D+VS), diabetes+taurine (D+T), diabetes+VS and taurine (D+VST). Plasma and tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography and spectrophotometry, respectively. Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were measured by spectrophotometric methods and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities were determined using commercial kits. RESULTS VS, taurine and VS and taurine combination treatments reduced the enhanced blood glucose, serum total cholesterol and triglyceride, tissue MDA and plasma MDA (except in the D+VS group) levels and increased the reduced serum insulin level, serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities, GSH-Px activity and SOD activity (except in the D+VS group). CONCLUSIONS The findings of the present study suggest that VS and taurine exert beneficial effects on the blood glucose and lipid levels in STZ-NA diabetic rats. However, VS might exert prooxidative or antioxidative effects in various components of the body and taurine and VS combination might be an alternative for sole VS administration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze the consequences of HDL oxidation for paraoxonase-1 metabolism and function. METHODS AND RESULTS HDL was oxidized with AAPH, copper ions, and hypochlorite. Secretion studies were performed using human paraoxonase-1-transfected cells lines and primary rat hepatocytes. Stability studies were performed with recombinant paraoxonase. Conditioned medium had significantly reduced paraoxonase-1 when Cu or AAPH-oxidized HDL was the acceptor complex (P<0.01); reduction was dose-dependent on the degree of oxidation. Oxidized HDL had a reduced capacity to stabilize/improve activity of secreted paraoxonase-1. Reduced secretion could not be attributed to enzyme inactivation by lipoperoxides, reduced binding affinity of HDL, or oxidation of the lipid component alone. Hypochlorite oxidation of HDL did not modify HDL-mediated paraoxonase-1 release, but activity of HDL-associated paraoxonase-1 was particularly sensitive to such treatment. CONCLUSIONS AAPH and copper, but not hypochlorite, oxidation of HDL compromises its ability to promote release of paraoxonase-1 and stabilize enzyme activity. HDL-associated paraoxonase-1 is highly sensitive to hypochlorite. Reducing paraoxonase-1 renders HDL susceptible to oxidation, which may compromise HDL function. It provides a novel example at the HDL level of the detrimental effects of oxidative stress, and underlines the need for further evaluation of the consequences of HDL oxidation.

Abstract
Phospholipid hydroperoxide (PLOOH) degrading activity of high density lipoprotein (HDL)-derived paraoxonase-1 (PON1) was investigated, using peroxidized 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl phosphatidylcholine (PCOOH) as substrate and high performance thin layer chromatography for quantitative peroxide analysis. Incubation of PCOOH with PON1 resulted in decay of the latter and reciprocal buildup of oleic acid hydroperoxide (OAOOH) at rates unaffected by GSH or other reductants. A serine esterase inhibitor blocked this activity and a recombinant PON1 was devoid of it, raising the possibility that the activity represents platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH), an esterase that co-purifies with PON1 from HDL. This was verified by showing that a recombinant PAF-AH recapitulates the ability of natural PON1 to hydrolyze PCOOH and release OAOOH while having essentially no effect on parental PC. Furthermore, recombinant PAF-AH and natural PON1 were shown to have similar K(m) values for PCOOH hydrolysis. Finally, we found that recombinant PAF-AH, but not PON1, catalyzes PLOOH hydrolysis in peroxidized low density lipoprotein. We conclude from this study that PON1 is neither a PLOOH peroxidase nor hydrolase and that the phospholipase A(2)-like activity previously attributed to PON1 in natural enzyme preparations was actually due to novel PLOOH hydrolytic activity of contaminating PAF-AH.

Abstract
Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an enzyme belonging to a three-member gene family, each of which is highly conserved in mammalian evolution. Whilst there is consensus that the paraoxonase family members have a general protective influence, their precise biological role has remained elusive. A toxicological role, protecting from environmental poisoning by organophosphate derivatives, drove much of the earlier work on the enzymes. More recently, clinical interest has focused on a protective role in vascular disease via a hypothesised impact on lipoprotein lipid oxidation. Recent confirmation that the primary activity of the paraoxonases is that of a lactonase considerably expands the potential sources of biological substrates for the enzyme. Studies on such substrates may shed further light on different mechanisms by which paraoxonases beneficially influence atherosclerosis, as well as defining possible roles in limiting bacterial infection and in innate immunity.

Abstract
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is blaimed to play a role in the onset of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to investigate serum paraoxonase/arylesterase activities and oxidation of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins in patients with MDD. Oxidation of lipoproteins plays an important role in atherogenesis and the enzyme paraoxonase, has been shown to prevent lipoprotein oxidation. Furthermore, low paraoxonase activity was suggested to predict CAD. Eighty-six patients who fully met the fourth Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders criteria for MDD and 36 healthy control subjects were included in the study. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were determined spectrophotometrically. Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins were determined before (basal) and after incubation with copper-sulphate, that yielded basal- and Delta-MDA values, respectively. Serum paraoxonase/arylesterase activities were significantly reduced in the post-treatment group compared with the pre-treatment group. Basal-MDA (MDA) level was significantly higher in the MDD group compared with the control group. Delta-MDA level of the severe MDD group was significantly higher than that of the control group. There was a positive correlation between the oxidizability of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and the severity of the disease. Total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, apolipoprotein B levels were significantly higher and apolipoprotein AI levels were significantly lower in the MDD group compared with those of the control group. The findings of the present study suggest that: 1) antidepressant treatment might reduce serum paraoxonase activity/mass; 2) oxidation and oxidizability of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins seem to be increased in MDD.

Abstract
HDL-associated paraoxonase (PON) antioxidant enzyme activity is cardio-protective. We investigated whether vitamin C prevented loss of PON activity from HDL during oxidant stress. HDL was incubated with either hydrophilic or lipophilic peroxyl radical initiators in the absence (control) or presence of vitamin C (50 and 100 micromol/L). Regardless of the type of radical, accumulation of lipid oxidation products in HDL was similar in incubations lacking vitamin C. Loss of PON activity was greater in HDL exposed to hydrophilic, in contrast to lipophilic, radicals, but addition of vitamin C maintained enzyme activity. Vitamin C's capacity to attenuate loss of the HDL ability to prevent atherogenic modification of LDL (assessed as electrophoretic mobility) was, however, modest, and appeared limited only to those incubations in which HDL was exposed to lipophilic radicals. Our results indicate that vitamin C may, under some conditions, prevent loss of cardio-protective function from HDL during oxidant stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to examine the association between paraoxonase-1 (PON1) activity and concentration and the severity and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD). BACKGROUND Paraoxonase-1, a high-density lipoprotein-associated enzyme, is proposed to have an antiatherogenic effect by protecting low-density lipoproteins against oxidation. METHODS We studied PON1 activity and concentration in 107 patients with known or suspected CAD referred for cardiac catheterization. Based on visual estimation of coronary angiograms, subjects were classified as having no or mild CAD (<50% stenosis) and significant CAD (> or =50% stenosis). Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) was used to estimate the indexes of severity, extent, and overall atheroma burden of CAD. RESULTS We found lower values of PON1 activity and concentration (p = 0.003 and p = 0.016, respectively) in the group with significant CAD as compared with the group with no or mild CAD. The PON1 activity was significantly inversely correlated with CAD severity (r = -0.364, p < 0.001), extent (r = -0.221, p = 0.022), and atheroma burden (r = -0.277, p = 0.004). Similarly, PON1 concentration correlated with CAD severity (r = -0.306, p = 0.001) and atheroma burden (r = -0.229, p = 0.017). In multiple regression analysis, gender and PON1 activity were significant determinants of the severity of CAD independently of age, hypertension, smoking, abnormal glucose regulation, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that PON1 activity and concentration are lower in subjects with significant CAD, and that there is a significant relationship between PON1 activity and concentration and CAD assessed by QCA.

Abstract
We investigated the association of PON1 55/192 polymorphisms with type, severity and prognosis of stroke and oxidative markers. Paraoxonase1 (PON1), Glutathione Reductase (GSH-Rd) and Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured at day 1 and at day 5 following the onset of stroke. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction digestion. The frequencies of QQ and MM genotypes of PON1 192 and PON1 55, respectively, were significantly higher in controls than in patients. However, the allele frequencies of PON1 192 R and PON1 55 L were significantly more frequent in patients compared to controls. The frequency of combined genotype of RR/LL was significantly higher in cardioembolic group than in atherothrombotic group. PON1 activities were significantly diminished in stroke patients compared to controls. In contrast, serum MDA levels were significantly greater in patients than the values in controls. GSH-Rd activity was higher in patients with small lesion and good prognosis than those with large and poor prognosis. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels in patients with large lesions were higher than those with small lesions. PON1 55/192 polymorphisms influence activity of the enzyme. PON1 55/192 genotypes have been associated with MDA levels. In conclusion, PON1 genetic variations are associated with risk factors, severity, type and prognosis of stroke and oxidative stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine whether genetic polymorphisms affecting high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated antioxidant enzymes were associated with open-angle glaucoma (OAG). The rationale for this study was that the modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) by HDL prevents oxidative modification which can then cause dysfunction of endothelial cells. METHODS We studied 284 normal Japanese controls and 555 Japanese patients with OAG, including primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). The possible associations of polymorphisms of PON1/L55M, PON1/Q192R, PON2/S311C, and PAF-AH/V279F with OAG were investigated. We compared the genotype distributions and allele frequency in controls and patient groups. The age at diagnosis, intraocular pressure (IOP) at diagnosis, and visual field score at diagnosis were examined for association with polymorphisms. RESULTS The distributions of genotypes and allele frequency for the four polymorphisms were not significantly different between any patient group and controls. In NTG patients, 55M carriers of the PON1 gene were significantly older at diagnosis than 55M non-carriers (P=0.001). The IOP at diagnosis was significantly higher in glaucoma patients carrying 192R in the PON1 gene than in patients not carrying 192R (P=0.006). No significant differences were seen in clinical characteristics of OAG patients in relation to other polymorphisms. CONCLUSION PON1 gene polymorphisms may influence the features of Japanese patients with OAG.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the oxidative status in experimental hypothyroidism and the antioxidant effect of taurine supplementation. Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups (group 1, control; group 2, control + taurine; group 3, propylthiouracil (PTU); group 4, PTU + taurine). Hypothyroidism was induced by giving 0.05% PTU in drinking water for 8 weeks. Taurine was supplemented in drinking water at a concentration of 1% for 5 weeks. Plasma (p < 0.05), red blood cell (p < 0.01), liver (p < 0.001) and kidney tissue (p > 0.05) malondialdehyde levels were increased in the PTU group compared with those of the control rats and were decreased in the PTU + taurine group compared with the PTU alone group. No significant changes were observed in glutathione levels of kidney and liver in the PTU group, but taurine supplementation significantly increased the glutathione levels of these tissues. Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were decreased in the PTU group while taurine supplementation caused no significant changes in paraoxonase and arylesterase activities. These findings suggest that taurine supplementation may play a protective role against the increased oxidative stress resulting from hypothyroidism.

Abstract
Human serum paraoxonase (PON1) has been implicated to play an important role in cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Studies in the literature indicate that PON1 has two different enzyme activities, i.e., esterase and hydroperoxide reducing activities. The objective of this study was to establish the importance of these two activities and to distinguish between them. As the addition of copper immediately inactivated the enzyme, we used auto-oxidation as the model system. Auto-oxidation of HDL resulted in more than 80% reduction of the esterolytic activity, which was protected by antioxidants, Vitamin E (50%) and PDTC (95%) and completely by 1 M glucose. In contrast, the hydroperoxide reducing activity, using unesterified hydroperoxides remained unaffected with time. We also used pNPHPODE (novel substrate) to establish that hydrolysis might be a prerequisite for the enzyme to act on the esterified hydroperoxide. The results indicated that the hydrolysis of the substrate was inhibited under oxidizing conditions with no reduction of the hydroperoxide. Overall, our findings suggest that protecting the esterolytic activity of PON1 by antioxidants might be important in preserving its action on phospholipid peroxides and a concerted reaction involving the esterolytic and hydroperoxide reducing activities might be suggested for the action of PON1.

Abstract
Thyroid hormones are associated with the oxidative and antioxidative status of the organism. Since data on the oxidative status of hypothyroidism are limited and controversial, we investigated the oxidant and antioxidant status and serum paraoxonase/arylesterase activities in propylthiouracil-induced hypothyroidism and examined the effect of vitamin E supplementation on this experimental model. Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups (group 1, control; group 2, control + vitamin E; group 3, propylthiouracil; group 4, propylthiouracil + vitamin E). Plasma, red blood cell, liver, heart and skeletal muscle malondialdehyde levels were increased in the propylthiouracil-treated group compared with the control rats and were decreased in propylthiouracil + vitamin E group compared with the propylthiouracil-treated group. Vitamin E supplementation also significantly increased liver and kidney reduced glutathione levels in propylthiouracil treated animals. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were decreased in propylthiouracil treated group and vitamin E supplementation caused significant increase in serum paraoxonase activity compared with the propylthiouracil-treated rats. These findings suggest that hypothyroidism is accompanied with increased oxidative stress and vitamin E supplementation exerts beneficial effects on this situation.

Abstract
Human serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1), a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated enzyme, has been shown to reduce the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and HDL by degrading lipid peroxides. This property of PON1 accounts for its ability to protect against atherosclerosis. In this study, we identified four polymorphisms in both the coding (L55M and Q192R) and regulatory regions (T-108C and G-909C) of the human PON1 gene in 202 healthy Thai individuals and investigated the influence of these polymorphisms on serum PON1 activity towards three substrates, namely, paraoxon, phenylacetate and diazoxon. The PON1 L55M, Q192R and G-909C polymorphisms significantly affected the variation in serum PON1 activity towards paraoxon. Serum PON1 activity towards paraoxon was significantly different among the genotype groups, as follows: 55LL > 55LM/55MM, 192RR > 192QR > 192QQ and -909CC > -909CG > -909GG. The PON1 Q192R and G-909C polymorphisms also influenced the variation in serum PON1 activity towards diazoxon but in the opposite direction to the activity towards paraoxon. Only the PON1 L55M polymorphism was associated with significant variation in serum PON1 activity towards phenylacetate while the PON1 T-108C polymorphism had no significant effect on serum PON1 activity towards any substrate. We also found linkage disequilibrium among the polymorphic sites, including Q192R versus L55M, Q192R versus T-108C and Q192R versus G-909C. Serum PON1 activity towards both paraoxon and phenylacetate, but not diazoxon, was positively correlated with HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) and apo AI concentrations. None of the PON1 polymorphisms significantly affected serum lipid, lipoprotein or apolipoprotein concentrations. Our findings suggest that the physiological relevance of the PON1 polymorphisms is that they are associated with significant differences in serum PON1 activity, and the impact of PON1 polymorphisms on this activity is substrate-dependent.

Abstract
Paraoxanase (PON 1), a high-density lipoprotein-associated enzyme, exerts an antiatherogenic effect by protecting low-density lipoproteins (LDL) against oxidation. A common polymorphism at codon 192(Q/R) of the PON 1 gene has been shown to be associated with an adverse lipoprotein profile and increased coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. However, these observations are based mostly on case-control studies involving relatively older adults. This study examined the frequency and phenotypic (lipoprotein variables) effect of the Q192R variant in a community-based sample of 1786 black and white young adults (mean age: 32.5 years; 69% white, 44% males). In addition, the genotypic effect of this polymorphism on ultrasonographically measured carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT), a surrogate measure of CAD risk, was examined in a subsample of 436 young adults (mean age: 32.6 years; 70% white, 42% male). The frequency of the variant allele (R192) was higher in blacks than in whites (0.668 versus 0.297, P <0.001). After adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, and smoking status, the R versus Q allele was associated with increased HDL cholesterol in whites (P=0.041), whereas the opposite was true in blacks (P=0.008). Neither the Q nor the R allele was associated with LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in both races. The genotypic effect on the carotid IMT adjusted for the covariates including lipoprotein variables was not apparent in whites or blacks. However, among whites, the carotid IMT was lower in carriers (QR + R) versus non-carriers (QQ) of the variant allele among females (P=0.008) and non-smokers (P=0.026). In addition, the variant allele negated the adverse positive relationship between the carotid IMT and triglycerides among whites (P=0.212 for carriers versus P <0.001 for non-carriers). These results indicate a differential effect of the Q192R variant on HDL cholesterol in whites versus blacks and a beneficial interaction effect of the variant allele with individual's sex, smoking status or triglyceride levels on the carotid IMT among whites.
