Abstract excerpt
Genetic polymorphisms in superoxide-producing NAD(P)H oxidase have been linked to cardiovascular diseases including anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. We quantified NAD(P)H oxidase activity in granulocytes of 81 healthy Caucasian volunteers (in addition, 51 in an independent confirmatory study) by chemiluminescence using the luminol analogue L-012. Expression of CYBA, NCF4 and RAC2 coding for NAD(P)H oxidase...
