Background and Hypothesis:- A common NOS3 Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) (894 G/T) which encodes a Glu298Asp amino acid substitution in endothelial NO synthase has been associated with cardiovascular disorders in which NO bioactivity is impaired. The gene coding for p22phox, a critical component of the NADH/NAD(P)H oxidase enzyme system, a major source of vascular SO, is CYBA. Among the allelic polymorphisms reported in CYBA is C242T, associated wit...
