Journal ArticleDOI
Paraoxonase inhibits high-density lipoprotein oxidation and preserves its functions. A possible peroxidative role for paraoxonase.
Michael Aviram,Mira Rosenblat,Charles L. Bisgaier,Roger S. Newton,S. L. Primo-Parmo,B N La Du +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that HDL-associated PON possesses peroxidase-like activity that can contribute to the protective effect of PON against lipoprotein oxidation, and may be a major contributor to the antiatherogenicity of this lipop Protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pomegranate juice consumption reduces oxidative stress, atherogenic modifications to LDL, and platelet aggregation: studies in humans and in atherosclerotic apolipoprotein E–deficient mice
Michael Aviram,Leslie Dornfeld,Mira Rosenblat,Nina Volkova,Marielle Kaplan,Raymond Coleman,Tony Hayek,Dita Presser,Bianca Fuhrman +8 more
TL;DR: Pomegranate juice had potent antiatherogenic effects in healthy humans and in atherosclerotic mice that may be attributable to its antioxidative properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consumption of red wine with meals reduces the susceptibility of human plasma and low-density lipoprotein to lipid peroxidation
TL;DR: The antioxidant effect of dietary red wine on plasma lipid peroxidation was not secondary to changes in the plasma vitamin E or beta-carotene content but could be related to the elevation of polyphenol concentration in plasma and LDL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Antioxidant Potency of Commonly Consumed Polyphenol-Rich Beverages in the United States
Navindra P. Seeram,Michael Aviram,Yanjun Zhang,Susanne M. Henning,Lydia Feng,Mark Dreher,David Heber +6 more
TL;DR: Although in vitro antioxidant potency does not prove in vivo biological activity, there is also consistent clinical evidence of antioxidant potency for the most potent beverages including both PJ and red wine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human serum paraoxonase (PON 1) is inactivated by oxidized low density lipoprotein and preserved by antioxidants.
Michael Aviram,Mira Rosenblat,Scott S. Billecke,John Erogul,Robert C. Sorenson,Charles L. Bisgaier,Roger S. Newton,Bert N. La Du +7 more
TL;DR: PON's ability to protect LDL against oxidation is accompanied by inactivation of the enzyme, suggesting the interaction of oxidized lipids in Ox-LDL with the PON's free sulfhydryl group.
