Abstract excerpt
The distribution of extracellular-superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) levels in healthy Australian subjects was consistent with two distinct phenotypes in which the smaller group of subjects (3.3%) had 15-fold higher levels. The EC-SOD levels in individuals homozygous for endothelial constitutive nitri...
