Arlyesterase activity of Paraoxonase-1 enzyme in Iraqi patients with β-thalassemia minor

Abstract: Background: Arylesterase activity of Paraoxonase-1 (ARE-PON-1) exhibits an antioxidant role which protects lipoprotein from oxidation. It is known that ARE-PON-1 antioxidant activity associated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) reduces the oxidative damage mediated by low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). The present study was aimed to examine the level of serum ARE-PON1 in Iraqi patients with β-thalassemia minor and its relationship with lipid profile (total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, ver… Show more

“…It is usually used as an indicator for oxidative stress in many diseases. Several studies reported that oxidative stress contributes in the antioxidant reduction and the development of many diseases [36][37][38][39][40][41][42]. It has been reported that TAM induces the oxidative stress generation [43].…”

“…Oxidative stress (OS) is a state of unbalanced tissue oxidation refers to a condition in which cells are subjected to excessive levels of molecular oxygen or its chemical derivatives called reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as: hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) superoxide anions (O2 ⋅-), and hydroxyl radicals (OH ⋅ ). ROS is a highly reactive intermediates of the oxygen metabolism, that being generated and destroyed constantly [3]. Therefore, OS has been involved in aging process and a wide assortment of diseases such as: cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disorders, diabetes, and cancer [4].…”
