Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how variations in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene may increase the likelihood of coronary heart disease (CHD) among young South Indians, focusing on specific genetic polymorphisms G-894T and T-786C.
- - Conducted from January to May 2022 with 91 CHD patients and 91 controls, the research involved blood sample analysis for nitric oxide levels and genetic testing using PCR and RFLP methods.
- - Results indicated significantly lower nitric oxide levels in CHD patients compared to controls, suggesting that the T-786C and G-894T gene polymorphisms are linked with an increased risk of CHD.
