Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphisms and essential hypertension in Han Chinese.
We examined the effect of polymorphisms in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene on the risk for essential hypertension in a Han Chinese population through a meta-analysis of data from 15 studies. Associations between increased risk for essential hypertension and 4b/a were obtained in a dominant model and allele contrast (aa + ab vs bb: odds ratio (OR)(FE) = 1.26, 95% confidence interval (...
متن کاملPolymorphisms of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene in preeclampsia in a Han Chinese population.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene has been enlisted by previous research as a candidate gene of preeclampsia predisposition. This study investigates the specific roles of 3 polymorphisms of the eNOS gene in a population of Chinese origin from mainland China. METHODS We studied the association of 3 commonly studied polymorphisms of the eNOS gene, namely 4b/a, T-...
متن کاملAnalysis of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene Polymorphisms in Vitiligo in Han Chinese People
BACKGROUND Vitiligo is a chronic depigmented skin disorder with regional melanocytes depletion. The pathogenesis was not completely clarified. Recently, more and more evidence suggested that polymorphisms of some genes are associated with vitiligo risk. Here, we want to examine the association between the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene polymorphisms and the risk of vitiligo in Chin...
متن کاملEndothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphisms and renal survival.
To the Editor: Development of end stage renal disease (ESRD) and a blunted in vitro generation of nitric oxide (NO) have been recently associated with the 298Asp substitution in the endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) gene.1 Diabetic nephropathy was the culprit of ESRD in most patients (pts);1 however, the same association was recently reported in pts with ESRD due to polycystic kidney disease.2 Col...
متن کاملEndothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphisms in giant cell arteritis.
OBJECTIVE To examine potential associations of the Glu/Asp(298) polymorphism in exon 7 and the 4a/b polymorphism in intron 4 of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene with susceptibility to and clinical expression of giant cell arteritis (GCA), particularly in patients with versus those without ischemic complications. METHODS Ninety-one consecutive patients with biopsy-proven GCA, ...
