Popis: genepolymorphism.Endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO), synthesizedbyendothelial NO synthase (eNOS), plays a crucial rolein regulating a wide variety of functions in the cardio-vascular system. A state of relative NO deficiency hasbeen linked to atherosclerosis, and has been equatedwith endothelial dysfunction (1).The
