Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Nitric oxide (NO) synthesized by endothelial cells is known to be a potent vasodilator. It has been suggested that the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) (G894T) may affect the response of vascular endothelium to increased oxidative stress. The Glu298Asp (GT) polymorphism located in exon 7, may be associated with several diseases. The objective...
