eNOS affects the NO level in the blood vessel wall, and therefore eNOS might be considered as a candidate gene for CAD. In this cross-sectional case-control association study we tested the hypothesis whether the eNOS 4alb gene polymorphism is a genetic marker for premature CAD in Slovene men. The eNOS 4a/b gene polymorphism was tested in 403 Slovene men: 215 cases with premature CAD and 188 subjects with no...
