T-786C Polymorphism of the Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene Is Associated with Albuminuria in the Diabetes Heart Study

The Study of Nitric Oxide Synthase 3 (NOS3) T-786C and 4a4b Gene Polymorphism in Iranian Men with Varicocele

Background and Objectives: Varicocele is one of the most common causes of male infertility. Varicocele is an abnormal dilatation and tortuosity of veins of the pampiniform plexus, which drain the testis. Studies have shown that elevated level of oxidative stress markers, such as nitric oxide (NO) in the dilated veins of patients with varicocele impair testicular function. The aim of this study,...

Association between T-786C polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene and level of the vessel dilation factor in patients with coronary artery disease

Various polymorphisms on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOs) gene cause reduced production of NO, the endothelial relaxing factor, and may accelerate the process of atherosclerosis. The study designed to investigate the frequency of T-786C polymorphism of the eNOs gene in patients suffering from coronary artery disease (CAD) in north-west of Iran. One hundred twenty subjects including 60 p...

Association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene G894T polymorphism with type two diabetes and diabetic nephropathy

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mediates a large range of processes, and abnormality in the production of NO has been implicated in diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy (DN). G894T polymorphism in the eNOS gene has been shown to decreased activity the NO levels of plasma. The association between eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and DN ri...
