Background The oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) is closely associated
with an increased risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) in diabetic patients. The purpose of …

Increasing evidence suggests that the postprandial state is a contributing factor to the
development of atherosclerosis. To evaluate the effects of acute hyperglycemia on the …

Methods Thirty two female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups: the control
group (n= 8) received a standard diet; streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats (n= 12) …

Background and Objectives: A majority of the Coronary Artery Diseases (CAD) result from
complications of atherosclerosis. There is a growing body of evidence which has revealed …

Atherosclerotic risk is increased in diabetes partly because of increased plasma levels of the
oxidized low-density lipoprotein and homocysteine, 2 independent and important …

Increased coronary artery disease (CAD) risk is well established in diabetes mellitus (DM).
Paraoxonase (PON) enzyme is known to have protective effects on lipid peroxidation. This …

OBJECTIVES:: Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) deficiency is related to increased susceptibility to low
density lipoprotein oxidation and development of atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was …

Abstract Coronary Artery Disease is the major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide.
Serum paraoxonase is a high density lipoprotein (HDL)-bound enzyme exhibiting …

OBJECTIVES: High-density lipoprotein (HDL) associated paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an
essential component of HDLs' capability to protect low-density lipoproteins (LDL) from …

OBJECTIVE: Paraoxonase (PON) is an antioxidant enzyme linked with cardiovascular
disease (CVD), diabetes as it prevents LDL oxidation. The relation of PON with the other …
