Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Our group previously reported the absence of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the gastroesophageal junction of patients with achalasia. NOS exists in three distinct isoforms: neuronal NOS (nNOS), endothelial NOS (eNOS), and inducible isoform (iNOS). Some studies have shown that NO production is regulated by NOS polymorphisms. AIM: To assess whether some functional polymorphisms in the nNOS, iNOS, or...
