Human paraoxonase 1 overexpression in mice stimulates HDL cholesterol efflux and reverse cholesterol transport.

This study was aimed to investigate the effect of human PON1 overexpression in mice on cholesterol efflux and reverse cholesterol transport. PON1 overexpression in PON1-Tg mice induced a significant 3-fold (p<0.0001) increase in plasma paraoxonase activity and a significant ~30% (p<0.0001) inc...
