Popis: Serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) are HDL-associated enzymes that contribute significantly to the formation of dysfunctional HDL. The present study thus seeks to comparatively analyze the predictive role of PON1, MPO and the MPO/PON1 ratio and to also evaluate which one has a stronger predictive role in their combined utility as an MPO/PON1 ratio in coronary artery disease (CAD).PON1 activity and MPO concentrations were determined in patients with established CAD and those without significant CAD. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn by plotting true positivity versus false positivity.The ROC curve analyses showed that PON1 (AUC = 61%, p = 0.003) and MPO/PON1 (AUC = 60%, p = 0.01) have a better diagnostic performance than MPO (AUC = 50%, p = 0.42) in detecting patients with CAD. PON1 and MPO/PON1 were found to have a significantly stronger discriminatory power for the age range ≥52 and 60 years (AUC = 69%, p = 0.008 for PON1; AUC = 66%, p = 0.022 for MPO/PON1). The multivariate analysis revealed PON1 as an independent variable that was significantly associated with the multi-vessel disease [odds ratio (OR) = 0.98; p = 0.017]. At the cutoff point of 30 μmol/mL/min for PON1 and 1.85 for MPO/PON1, specificities were 97% and 73% and sensitivities 30% and 54% for discriminating patients with single-vessel disease from non-CAD subjects.The diagnostic performance of PON1 alone was comparable to that of the MPO/PON1 ratio for CAD risk assessment; however, MPO may increase the true positive rate. A larger number of blocked vessels seems to be associated with an increased predictive power for both PON1 and MPO/PON1. Recent data support the fact that PON1 and MPO may potentially be appropriate therapeutic targets for preventing CAD.
