Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene Glu298Asp polymorphism is associated with advanced stage endometriosis.

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...

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...

P-235: No Association of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) -786T/C Polymorphism with Unexplained Recurrent Abortion in Iranian Women

Background: This is a case-control study to determine the relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene -786T/C polymorphism in women with unexplaiend recurrent abortion in comparison with healty women.Materials and Methods: 95 women with history of at least 2 unexplaiend recurrent abortion in the reproductive age range 20-35 years as patients group and 95 healty women (age...

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

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphism and maternal vascular adaptation to pregnancy.

A common polymorphism of the endothelial NO synthase gene that predicts a Glu298Asp amino acid substitution in the mature protein has been associated with cardiovascular disorders in which NO bioactivity is impaired. However, the influence of this polymorphism on endothelial function is unknown. Healthy pregnancy is associated with enhanced endothelium-dependent, flow-mediated dilation (FMD) of...
