Paraoxonase 1 gene transfer lowers vascular oxidative stress and improves vasomotor function in apolipoprotein E‐deficient mice with pre‐existing atherosclerosis

Abstract: Background and purpose: Transgenesis of human paraoxonase 1 (PON1), a HDL-associated enzyme that destroys lipid peroxides, has been reported to reduce early atherogenesis in mice. The present study explored the therapeutic potential of human PON1 gene transfer in old apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE À/À ) mice with advanced atherosclerosis. Experimental approach: ApoE À/À mice (18 months, regular chow) were transfected with PON1 adenovirus (AdPON1, n ¼ 10) or control adenovirus (AdRR5, n ¼ 10). Non-transfected… Show more

“…PON1, a member of the paraoxonase subfamily, is involved in the onset and development of cardiovascular diseases [35][36][37]. To explore whether PON1 participates in FGF21 protection against DCM, we first tested the expression of PON1 in both STZ/HFD-treated FGF21 KO and WT mice.…”

“…Finally, lesion formation was limited in our study by the time frame during which ApoE-KO mice developed intermediate or advanced atherosclerotic lesions. According to previous study, 35 adenovirus-mediated hPON1 gene transfer in ApoE-KO mice with preexisting atherosclerosis failed to reduce the plaque size, but did greatly improve oxidative stress and endothelial cell function in arteries.…”

“…Studies addressing atherosclerosis through Ad-PON1 gene transfer were more successful, achieving 4-15-fold higher levels of PON1 in mice and improved vascular wall oxidative stress, endothelial cell function, smooth muscle cell Ca 2+ homeostasis and reduced oxidized LDL. 29,30 Purified rabbit and hPON1 Protection by PON1 from OP toxicity has been achieved by injecting purified rabbit PON1 into rats and mice. By increasing the PON activity 30-to 50-fold above endogenous levels, rats and mice were protected from the toxicity of chlorpyrifos oxon as measured by inhibition of AChE activity.…”
