High-density lipoprotein subclasses.

abstract：PURPOSE OF REVIEW:The antioxidant activity of high-density lipoprotein is largely due to the paraoxonase 1 located on it. Experiments with transgenic paraoxonase 1 knock-out mice indicate the potential for this enzyme to protect against atherogenesis. This effect of high-density lipoprotein in decreasing low-density li...
