Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of different degrees of chronic ischemia of the lower limbs on PON1 activity in plasma, in relation to different substrates. DESIGN AND METHODS: The studied group consisted of patients with chronic arterial occlusion of the lower limbs due to atherosclerosis. The paraoxonase and arylesterase activities of PON1 were measured according to the Karen Gan method. RESULTS: PON1 arylesterase activity was affected by ischemia of the lower limbs depending on its degree. In the group with critical ischemia decreased PON1 activity was observed in comparison with that in the moderate ischemia group and the control group (50.05+/-21.40 U/mL and 82.59+/-29.27 U/mL, 85.30+/-35.05 U/mL, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The results revealed a reverse relationship between PON1 activity and the progress of atherosclerosis to the ischemic level. The present study demonstrates, for the first time, that the arylesterase activity of PON1 is affected by critical ischemia of the lower limbs.
