Distribution of paraoxon hydrolytic activity in the serum of patients after myocardial infarction

J McElveen et al. Clin Chem. 1986 Apr.

Abstract

The activity of paraoxonase in serum was found to be bimodally distributed, both in a control group and in a group of patients who had suffered myocardial infarction. Activity in the myocardial infarct group was significantly lower than in the control group. Low paraoxonase activity in serum may provide an indication of susceptibility to the development of coronary heart disease.
