PP-089 Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Dipper and Non-dipper Prehypertensive Subjects




Objective


Paraoxonase 1, a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) linked enzyme complex, was shown to be decreased in several cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to explore whether serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities differ in dipper and non-dipper prehypertensive subjects compared to healthy controls.




Methods


Sixty prehypertensive subjects and 30 controls enrolled in the study. All subjects underwent echocardiographic assessment and 24-hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). According to ABPM, prehypertensive subjects were categorized into two: non-dipper prehypertensive (NDPH) and dipper prehypertensive (DPH) groups. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were detected spectrophotometrically.




Methods


Sixty prehypertensive subjects and 30 controls enrolled in the study. All subjects underwent echocardiographic assessment and 24-hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). According to ABPM, prehypertensive subjects were categorized into two: non-dipper prehypertensive (NDPH) and dipper prehypertensive (DPH) groups. Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were detected spectrophotometrically.




Results


The groups were comparable in terms of age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and serum glucose, creatinine and lipid parameters, left ventricular (LV) diameters and LV ejection fraction. However, left atrial (LA) diameter, interventricular septum and posterior wall thicknesses, and LV mass index (LVMI) were significantly higher in the NDPH than DPH and controls (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.001, and p=0.006, respectively). The measurements of ABPM and paraoxanase and arylesterase activites were shown in Table 1. Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities were significantly lower in patients with NDPH compared to both DPH and control groups. Paraoxonase activity was positively correlated with HDL, and negatively correlated with systolic BP, diastolic BP and LVMI (r1=0.513, r2=-0.460, r3=-0.423, r4=-0.213; and p1,2,3<0.001, p4=0.044, respectively). Arylesterase activity was also positively correlated with HDL, and negatively correlated with systolic BP, diastolic BP and LVMI (r1=0.513, r2=-0.394, r3=-0.361, r4=-0.257; and p1,2,3<0.001, p4=0.015, respectively).




Conclusions


We have demonstrated that NDPH subjects have lower paraoxonase and arylesterase activities compared to DPH subjects and normotensives. Further prospective large scale studies are needed to clarify the role of paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in the development of HT in prehypertensive subject s.
