Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effects of certainrespiratory drugs, which are mainly usedon human serum paraoxonase-1 (hPON1; EC 3.1.8.1). hPON1 was purified from human serum, with 354.91 fold and 45% yield by using two simple step procedures including, first, ammonium sulfate precipitation, then, Sepharose-4B-l-tyrosine-1-naphthylamine hydrophobic interaction chromatography. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single protein band belongingto hPON1 with 43 kDa. All the pharmaceutical compounds inhibited the PON1 enzyme highly at the micromolar level. The obtained IC50 values for nine different pharmaceutics ranged from 0.219 μM (salbutamol sulfate) to 67.205 μM (montelukast sodium). So, all drugs couldbe considered as potent hPON1 inhibitors. Ki values and inhibition types were determined by Lineweaver-Burk graphs. While varenicline tartrate and moxifloxacin hydrochloride inhibited the enzyme in a noncompetitive manner, others inhibited it in a mixed manner.
