Abstract
The oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a central role in the initiation and acceleration of atherosclerosis. Human serum paraoxonase (PON1) is associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and has been shown to reduce the susceptibility of LDL to lipid peroxidation. We investigated whether circulating oxidized LDL (Ox-LDL) levels were associated with diabetic vascular complications, and whether the enzymatic activity...
