Abstract:Background
The endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene deficiency is known to cause impaired coronary vasodilating capability in animal models. In the general clinical population, the eNOS gene polymorphisms, able to affect eNOS activity, were associated with cardiometabolic risk features and prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD).
Aim
To investigate the association of eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism, cardiometabolic profile, obstructi… Show more
