PARAOXONASE ACTIVITY AND ANTIBODIES TO OXIDIZED-LDL IN CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE PATIENTS ON RENAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry - Year 2006, Vol 21, Issue 2
Abstract
Serum paraoxonase (PON1) and antibodies to oxidized-LDL (anti ox-LDL) were measured in chronic renal failure subjects on renal replacement therapy such as hemodialysis (HD) peritoneal dialysis (PD) and transplantation (Txp). Paraoxonase activity was significantly lower in HD and PD group (P
