Abstract excerpt
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is thought to influence serum homocysteine concentrations, at least in part, due to its homocysteine thiolactonase activity and to play a role in preeclampsia and atherosclerosis. We investigated the effects of PON 55 and PON 192 polymorphisms on plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) concentrations in preeclamptic and healthy pregnants among Turkish population (N = 106). PON 55 and 192 genotypes...
