Gender Related Differences in Paraoxonase 1 Response to High‐fat Diet‐induced Oxidative Stress

Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the influence of the pro-oxidant and proinflammatory state related to dietary obesity on serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity in male and female rats. Methods and Procedures: Adult Wistar rats of both genders were fed on a high-fat diet to induce weight gain or standard diet for 14 weeks. Body weight was assessed weekly and food intake fortnightly throughout the dietary treatment. Biometrical parameters and serum lipid profile, glucose, insulin, and adipokine levels were measured. To asse… Show more

“…This is in agreement with studies using short dietary treatments and similar diets, where the excess of body weight was found to be genderdependent [43]. However, in spite of this greater body weight, HFD female rats showed a less marked lipid accumulation in liver, which could be related to higher adipose tissue expandability, such as is pointed out by the adiposity index.…”

“…Similarly, Kujiraoka et al (28) found no correlation of serum clusterin with BMI in a study on Japanese adults with coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes. In rats, diet-induced obesity had no effect on plasma clusterin levels (29). Our results obtained in plasma samples do not necessarily indicate that the binding of leptin to clusterin is irrelevant for the regulation of leptin activity and body weight.…”

“…29 Paraoxonase activity has been suggested to play a role as an antioxidant defense. 30 In our study, the decreased serum PON1 activity induced by EG treatment could be related to the oxidative stress generated by oxalate accumulation. 2 Thus, PON1 protection against oxidation has been reported to result in a partial, time-dependent inactivation of the enzyme.…”
