Factors Associated with Paraoxonase Genotypes and Activity in a Diverse, Young, Healthy Population: The Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Study

Abstract: Background: Paraoxonase may mitigate oxidative damage and thus lower risk of macrovascular disease. Methods: DNA samples from 2252 participants in the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study were genotyped for the L55M and Q192R polymorphisms of the PON1 (paraoxonase 1) gene, and paraoxonase activity was measured in serum. Results: The 192R (67.4% vs 29.7%) and 55L (80.0% vs 63.8%) alleles were more common in blacks vs whites. The Q192R locus was the strong… Show more

“…Two previous studies have investigated the relationship between PON1 and CACS. In the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults Study, there was no association between PON1 activity and CACS [35], while in the Diabetes Heart Study there were modest associations between CACS and the PON1-Q192R (P = 0.002) and PON2-S311C genotypes (P = 0.037) [36]. Further, much larger studies are required to determine any relationships between PON1 parameters and CACS.…”

“…It is possible that HDL may be dysfunctional in patients with migraine or become dysfunctional over time. PON1 was reported not to play an important role in the early pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases in young adults in the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study (33). When the relationship between HDL dysfunction and PON1 activity was considered, time may be an important factor in atherosclerosis development.…”

“…Moreover, PON1 levels are sensitive to the specific (functional) polymorphic variants of Leu55Met and/or Gln192Arg. Thus, polymorphic phenotypes (PON55 and PON192) of PON1 have been correlated with cardiovascular risk [12] including that induced by macrovascular pathogenesis [19], and with developing acute ischemic stroke [20,21] as well as renal disease [22]. …”
