Досліджено порушення ліпідних параметрів крові у хворих на ревматоїдний артрит (РА) поєднанні з артеріальною гіпертензією (АГ), абдомінальним ожирінням (АО) та цукровим діабетом типу 2 (ЦД 2) залежно від поліморфізму гена T-786C ендотеліальної оксиду азоту синтази (eNOS). Матеріал і методи. Етап скринінгу пройшли 60 із АГ, АО ЦД 20 практично здорових осіб. Поліморфізм eNOS (rs2070744) визначали...

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) plays an important role in maintaining blood pressure homeostasis and vascular integrity. Polymorphisms in the eNOS gene have been found to be associated with hypertension in different human populations, including Northern and Southern Chinese Han populations. To examine the relationship of three eNOS gene polymorphisms, T-786C (rs2070744), G894T (...

BACKGROUND Polymorphisms of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene are reportedly associated with myocardial infarction (MI) risk. However, definitive evidence of this association is lacking. In this study, we investigated the potential association of eNOS gene polymorphisms with MI risk by conducting a meta-analysis of studies evaluating this association. MATERIAL AND METHODS PubMed...

Suicide, one of the leading causes of death among young adults, seems to be plausibly modulated by both genetic and personality factors. The aim of this study was to dissect the potential association between genetics and temperament in a sample of 111 suicide attempters and 289 healthy controls. We focused on 4 genes previously investigated in association with suicide on the same sample: the ni...

We investigated a possible association of polymorphism of the eNOS gene and essential hypertension in the Chinese Hui population; polymorphisms of rs2070744 (T>C), rs1799983 (G>T), rs1800780 (A>G), and rs3918181 (A>G) loci of the eNOS gene were examined. We found that the genotypic frequencies at rs1799983 and rs1800780 loci differed significantly between patients with essential hypertension an...

Relevance – it is promising to develop a system for the diagnosis and prevention of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), which would be based on determination constitutive propensity factors able predict onset progression disease. The aim study was model predicting rate depending gender endothelial NO-synthase (NOS3) gene polymorphism. There were genotyped 153 patients with POAG aged 36-84 years...

We used a within-subject, cross-over design study to compare the impact of 4-weeks' resistance (RT) versus endurance (END) training on vascular function. subsequently explored association intra-individual effects RT END function with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) NOS3 gene. Thirty-five healthy males (21 ± 2 years old) were genotyped for rs2070744 SNP and completed both modalities. Partic...

BACKGROUND Numerous individually underpowered association studies have been conducted on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) genetic variants across different ethnic populations, however, the results are often irreproducible. We therefore aimed to meta-analyze three eNOS widely-evaluated polymorphisms, G894T (rs1799983) in exon 7, 4b/a in intron 4, and T-786C (rs2070744) in promoter region...

OBJECTIVE Nitric oxide is produced by endothelial nitric oxide synthase, and its production can be influenced by polymorphisms of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene. Because candidate genes responsible for susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis are mostly unknown and available data suggest that there may be problems related to the nitric oxide pathway, such as endothelial dysfunction ...

In previous studies, we found an endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene (NOS3) variant rs2070744 associated with the ambulatory blood pressure (BP) response following bouts of moderate and vigorous intensity acute exercise, termed post-exercise hypotension (PEH). In a validation cohort, we sequenced NOS3 exons for associations with PEH Obese (30.9 ± 3.6 kg.m-2) African American (n = 14) [AF] an...
