Abstract excerpt
Background and Objective: Oxidative stress plays an important role in atherosclerosis and ischemic stroke. Due to antioxidant properties of Paraoxonase-2, we studied the implication of Paraoxonase-2 gene polymorphism (C1053G) on expression of Paraoxonase-2 gene at mRNA level in ischemic stroke patients. Material and Methods: 40 patients of ischemic stroke and 40 age and sex-matched controls were included....
