The association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase G894T polymorphism with C-reactive protein level and metabolic syndrome in a Chinese study group.

Abstract excerpt

Some studies have reported a possible relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and metabolic syndrome (MS), which is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. A recent meta-analysis study found the eNOS G894T polymorphism to be associated with ischemic heart disease. Here, we examine the association of eNOS G894T polymorphism with MS in a Chinese population (n = 397). The...
