The Paraoxonases: Their Role in Disease Development and Xenobiotic Metabolism

Research into the paraoxonase (PON) multigene family has really only blossomed in the last 10 years. Before this time only PON1 was known and research was restricted to toxicologists investigating the metabolism of organophosphate insecticides and nerve gases and a few "mad" scientists sea...
