Abstract excerpt
Recently, biochemical studies of paraoxonase in the serum of humans have shown that much of this enzymes' activity is associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and paraoxonase may play a role in lipid metabolism preventing the accumulation of the lipoperoxides. In this study, a possible relationship between coronary heart disease (CHD) and paraoxonase activity were investigated. Serum triglycerides, total...
