AIMS: Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an antioxidant high-density lipoprotein-bound enzyme, which was recently found to be expressed in the islets of Langerhans. A substitution (Q/R) at position 192 results in enzymes with different activity. Oxidation has been implicated in the onset of diabetes, and it can be hypothesized that PON1 may have a protective effect on diabetes. Our aim was to compare PON1 activities and PON1 Q/R phenotypes in subjects with different degrees of glucose intolerance. METHODS: We examined 566 members of the Cohort study of Diabetes and Atherosclerosis Maastricht (CoDAM), including subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT, n = 298), impaired glucose regulation (IGR, n = 128), newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes (nDM, n = 78) and treated, that is to say known, Type 2 diabetes (kDM, n = 64). PON1 activity was measured in serum using paraoxon and diazoxon as substrates. The PON1 phenotype was determined using two-dimensional enzyme analysis. RESULTS: The RR-phenotype was significantly more frequent in nDM compared with NGT subjects (14.1 vs. 6.0%, P = 0.05). Adjusted for the PON1 phenotype, subjects with nDM had significant lower PON1 activity towards paraoxon and diazoxon than subjects with NGT. Adjusted odds ratios comparing the RR-variant with the QQ-variant were 2.17 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.90-5.24] for impaired glucose tolerance, 2.84 (95% CI: 1.03-7.83) for nDM, 2.13 (95% CI; 0.61-7.42) for kDM and 2.65 (95% CI: 1.10-6.40) for total diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSIONS: An aberrant PON1 phenotype distribution and PON1 activity were observed in early diabetes. In addition, the higher state of oxidative stress may affect the future development of complications.
