Polymorphism of Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene and Nitric Oxide Production in Serum in Cerebral Infarction / 中国康复理论与实践

@#Objective To observe the polymorphism of nitric oxide synthase(NOS)gene and the changes of nitric oxide(NO)in cerebral infarct.Methods The prospective case-control study was employed.Cases contained 193 subjects with cerebral infarction of internal carotid artery system within 2 weeks.Controls contained 103 subjects which came from the normal health checkup.The polymorphism in intron 4 of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)gene were detected.NO content was measured by Griess diazotization assay and NOS activity by enzynatic assay.Results There were 48 subjects with allele a in intron 4 of eNOS gene(eNOS4a)in cases and 12 in controls.The frequencies of eNOS4a in cases was higher than that in controls(χ2=8.86,P=0.003).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis confirmed that eNOS4a was an independent risk factors for cerebral infarction(P=0.032).NO production and NOS activity were 6.04(3.83～11.49)μmol/L,(2.97±1.47)U/ml,respectively in cases,and 6.89(4.64～12.43)μmol/L,(3.16±1.46)U/ml,respectively in controls.NO production in cases were significantly lower than that in controls(P=0.022).There was not differential in NOS activity between these two groups(P=0.517).NO production and NOS activity were 5.07(3.18～7.62)μmol/L,(2.77±1.13)U/ml,respectively in the subjects with eNOS4a,and 6.89(4.64～12.43)μmol/L,(3.12±1.54))U/ml,respectively in the subjects without eNOS4a.NO production in the subjects with eNOS4a were significantly lower than that in the subjects without eNOS4a(P=0.001).The NOS activities were not significantly different in subjects with or without eNOS4a(P=0.100).Conclusion eNOS4a possibly exerted some effects on cerebral infarction by diminishing NO.

The association between polymorphisims of aldose reductase gene and endothelial nitric oxide synthase and diabetic nephropathy / 医学研究生学报

Objective:To investigate the association between polymorphisims of both the 894G→T at exon 7 of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS) gene and the C-106T at promotor region of aldose reductase(AR) gene and type 2 diabetic nephropathy(DN) of Chinese. Methods: A case-control study for 202 Chinese subjects was performed.The genotypes and alleles of polymorphisims of 894G→T at exon 7 of eNOS gene and C-106T at promotor region of AR gene were determined by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment lenth polymorphism method(PCR-RFLP). Results:The frequency of the T allele and TG genotype at exon 7 of eNOS gene and the T allele and CT genotype at promotor region of AR gene were significantly higher in DN+ group than that in DN-group and control group(P0.05).The type 2 diabetes with coexistence of the T allele/TG genotype of eNOS gene and T allele/CT genotype of AR gene had higher incidence of DN(P

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphism and acute myocardial infarction / 中国实用内科杂志

Objective To investigate the association of the Glu298-Asp(894G→T)mutation at exon 7 of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene and acute myocardial infarction.Methods By using the designed primers based on flanking sequences of the Glu298-Asp mutation at exon7 of eNOS, 894G→T fragments were amplified by nested PCR from genomic DNA of healthy control and AMI subjects, digested by restriction enzyme after amplification and detected by agarose gel electrophoresis for 894G→T genotyping. To count the genotype and allele frequencies, the significance of difference in the genotype and allele between two groups were assessed by statistical analysis.Results Three genotypes containing GG, GT, TT were identified on the 894 site of the eNOS gene exon 7 in both AMI and controls. In AMI group, there were 25 patients having 9 homozygotes, the other 16 having heterozygotes. In controls, there were 13 cases with G894T mutation,all having heterozygotes. The mutation frequency of TT homozygote allele has extraordinary significant difference between two groups (P

The association of a polymorphism in endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene with diabetic nephropathy / 中华检验医学杂志

Objective To examine the association of intron 4 polymorphism in endothelial nitric oxide synthase ( eNOS) gene with diabetic nephropathy and its distribution in different ethnic groups of Singapore. Methods 258 patients with diabetic duration longer than 10 years (150 Chinese, 71 Malay and 37 Indian) were selected from both inpatients and outpatients of National University Hospital. Polymorphism was identified by DNA extraction, PCR, Cloning and sequencing. Results All published studies identified that the 27bp repeat polymorphism in intron 4 was biallelic ( a and b alleles ). Our study found a third allele-allele c, with six 27bp repeats. It was also demonstrated that there was no significant difference in overall allele distribution among the three main ethnic groups and the intron 4 polymorphism didn't show any association with diabetic nephropathy. Conclusion The intron 4 polymorphism was triallelic. We failed to demonstrate any association between this polymorphism with diabetic nephropathy.

eNOS gene polymorphism in patients with acute coronary syndrome or variant angina in Korean / 대한내과학회지

BACKGROUND: Nitric oxide, also known as endothelial derived relaxing factor(EDRF), regulates the vascular tone and inhibits the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and platelet adhesions and endothelium-leukocyte interactions. Thus, nitric oxide may be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and vasospasm. We analyzed the genotype distributions of two eNOS gene polymorphisms in normal healthy Koreans and compared it with those in the patients with acute coronary syndrome and variant angina. METHODS: We analyzed the two eNOS polymorphisms (eNOS A/B polymorphism is the variable numbers of tandem repeat in intron 4 and eNOS T/G polymorphism is a mis-sense mutation in exon 7) using PCR and clinical characteristics of the risk factors for coronary artery disease in 142 normal healthy Koreans and 164 patients with acute coronary syndrome and 104 patients with variant angina. RESULTS: The genotype distribution of A/B polymorphism of eNOS gene, A/A, A/B, B/B was 4.9%, 21.1%, 74% in control group and 2.4%, 12.8%, 84.8% in the patients with acute coronary syndrome(p=0.02) and 2.9%, 16.3%, 80.8% in the patients with variant angina(p=NS), respectively. The genotype distribution of T/G polymorphism of eNOS gene, T/T, T/G, G/G was 1.4%, 15.5%, 83.1% in control group and 0.6%, 21.3%, 78.1% in the patients with acute coronary syndrome(p=NS) and 0%, 18.3%,81.7% in the patients with variant angina(p=NS), respectively. The odds ratio for acute coronary syndrome of non B/B(A/A & A/B) to B/B was 0.489 (95% CI : 0.257-0.928). We found that age, sex (male), diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, smoking, B/B genotype were independent risk factors for acute coronary syndrome. But, in variant angina, smoking was the only significant independent risk factor(odds ratio=5.934, 95% CI 2.843-12.388, p< 0.05). CONCLUSION: The B/B genotype frequency of eNOS gene was significantly higher in patients with acute coronary syndrome than in normal controls. But neither A/B nor T/G polymorphism of eNOS gene was associated with variant angina. These results suggest that eNOS gene may play some roles in the pathogenesis of ACS rather than vasospasm.

Significance of eNOS Gene Polymorphism for the Prediction of Restenosis after Coronary Angioplasty in Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease

BACKGROUND: The restenosis after coronary angioplasty is the unresolved problem even if the improvement of interventional skills and pharmacological therapies. Nitric oxide, known as endothelial derived relaxing factor (EDRF), regulates the vascular tone and inhibits the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and platelet adhesions and endothelium-leukocyte interactions. Nitric oxide is produced by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). We studied the significance of eNOS gene polymorphism for the prediction of restenosis after coronary angioplasty in Koreans with ischemic heart disease. METHODS: We analyzed the two eNOS poly-morphisms using PCR (eNOS A/B polymorphism is the VNTR in intron 4 and eNOS T/G polymorphism is a missense mutation in exon 7) in 199 Korean patients who had 257 lesions undergoing percutaneous coronary angioplasty (ballooning=152, stenting=105). The angiography was repeated 6 months later to assess the relation between the rate of restenosis and types of eNOS gene polymorphism. RESULTS: We found no significant differences of restenosis rate in eNOS A/B and T/G polymorphism in those with balloon angioplasty or with stent (restenosis rate of A/A, A/B, B/B, respectively (n=257): 25% (1/4), 26% (14/53), 31% (62/200) (p=not significant), and T/T, T/G, G/G (n=249): 0% (0/3), 36% (16/44), 29% (58/202)(p=not significant)) Patients with A allele (non BB) or GG phenotype had lower restenosis rate, so we analyzed protective effect of non BB and GG phenotype on restenosis, but there was no significant statistical difference (restenosis rate of non BB and GG, BB and non GG respectively: 20% (15/57), 34% (16/47)(p=not significant)). CONCLUSION: eNOS A/B and T/G polymorphism is not associated with a significantly elevated risk of restenosis after coronary angioplasty.
