Abstract excerpt
The 894T allele of a G894T polymorphism in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene is associated with decreased eNOS activity, cleavage of the protein, and endothelial dysfunction. The present study evaluated the association with coronary blood flow (CBF) at rest and during adenosine (ADO)-induced hyperemia. CBF was determined by Doppler flow wire and angiography in 97 left anterior descending arteries...
