Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in patients with lung cancer in a Turkish population

Abstract: Background: Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Oxidative DNA damage may contribute to the cancer risk. The antioxidant paraoxonase (PON1) is an endogenous free radical scavenger in the human body. The aim of this study was to determine serum PON1 and arylesterase (ARE) activities in patients with newly diagnosed LC.

“…Paraoxonase (PON-1) and arylesterase (ARE) are esterase enzymes with antioxidant properties in a complementary structure. PON-1 shows a structure that binds to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and protects low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and HDL from oxidative stress by contributing to the destruction of organophosphorus compounds, such as paraoxone and lipid peroxidation products (11). In humans, PON-1 has been shown to play a role in the pathophysiology of many diseases (23).…”

“…The enzymes PON-1 and ARE are part of an antioxidant system that protects HDL and LDL particles from oxidation (11,23). The significantly decreased activity of PON-1 has been demonstrated in dogs diagnosed with leishmaniosis, babesiosis, parvoviral enteritis, and acute pancreatitis (17,24,31,39).…”

“…18 In recent years, number of the studies investigating the relation between PON1 activity and cancer are increasing. Compared to the healthy controls, lower serum levels of PON1 were measured in patients suffering from breast 19,20 , lung 20,21 , laryngeal 22 , gastric 23 , pancreatic 24 and colorectal cancer. 20 Variations due to the presence of single nucleotide polymorphisms in antioxidant enzymes may contribute to the inter-individual differences between the transcript levels and enzyme activities, which might play a significant role in the development of cancer.…”

“…A atividade enzimática da PON1 ainda exibe uma variação entre os indivíduos de diferentes etnias, de aproximadamente 10 a 40 vezes (Cataño et al, 2006;Elkiran et al, 2007;Eng et al, 2009;Eom et al, 2011).…”

“…Alterações na circulação dos níveis de PON1 podem também ser encontradas numa variedade de doenças que envolvem o estresse oxidativo, incluindo doença cardiovascular (Mackness et al, 2004;Gupta et al, 2011), diabetes (Iborra, 2006;Flekac et al, 2008), cânceres (Stevens et al, 2006;Elkiran et al, 2007;Camuzcuoglu et al, 2009), ou até mesmo entre indivíduos saudáveis (Ferreira, 2007;Parra et al, 2010;Singh et al, 2011).…”
