Abstract excerpt
The 27-bp tandem repeat polymorphism in intron 4 of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene (eNOS) in populations of the Volga-Ural region was studied by means of polymerase chain reaction. In Russians and Tatars, the possible association of this polymorphism with coronary heart disease complicated by either myocaridal infarction or by essential hypertension was examined. Russians with essential hypertension...
