The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that inflammatory cytokines impairs endothelium-dependent relaxation and NO production gets vitiated due to eNOs Glu298Asp gene polymorphism causing endothelial dysfunction in eclampsia.
In a population with a compromised endothelial function, concentrations of phenols in dietary VOO interact with NOS3 Glu298Asp to ameliorate the endothelial dysfunction associated to the TT genotype.
Polymorphisms in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase ( eNOS ) gene (- 786T > C and 894G > T ) enhance endothelial dysfunction and have been studied in relation to coronary artery disease (CAD).
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that (i) endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase Glu298Asp gene polymorphism limits constitutive NO production causing endothelial dysfunction and (ii) inflammatory cytokines impairs endothelium dependent relaxation in pre-eclampsia.
An increasing body of evidence suggests that different genetic factors, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) I/D, angiotensin II type-1 receptor (AT1R) A1166C, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T and ENOS G894T variants are associated with an endothelial dysfunction (ED).
Genetic polymorphism G894T on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene has been associated with endothelial dysfunction in young smokers, but its role in the pathogenesis of MI is obscure.
The 894T allele of a G894T polymorphism in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene is associated with decreased eNOS activity, cleavage of the protein, and endothelial dysfunction.
