Genetic variations of paraoxonase (PON) correlate with HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), suggesting antiatherogenic properties. Atherosclerosis occurs naturally in humans and rabbits but not in mice. We compared variations of PON arylesterase activity (PON AE-ase, phenylacetate substrate) in humans, rabbits, and mice. In humans and rabbits, >95% of PON AEase is HDL associated. In mice, about 30% of PON AEase is lipid poor. In the absence of apoA-I in mice, total PON AEase is reduced and >60% is lipid poor. PON A-Ease level and distribution is restored in apoA-I-/- mice injected with adenoviruses encoding human apoA-I and in transgenic mice expressing human apoA-I at a steady-state level. Thus, while apoA-I is not required for the HDL association of PON AEase, induced variations in apoA-I correlate with changes in HDL-associated, but not lipid-poor, PON AEase. PON AEase associates only with apoA-I- or apoE-containing HDL but not VLDL. In the absence of both apoA-I and apoE, PON AEase is all-lipid-poor. PON AEase is displaced from HDL by ultracentrifugation and following incubation with serum amyloid A.jlr Variations in the PON distribution between HDL and lipid-poor fractions may have important consequences in its antioxidant activity and in atherogenesis.
