Objective:To explore the relationship between polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)gene G894T and coronary heart disease(CAD)in Han Nationlity.Methods:Polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragments length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP)was used to determine the genotype of the eNOS gene G894T in 103 patients with CAD and 104 controls.Results:There was significant difference in frequencies of allele in G894T polymorphism of eNOS gene between CAD and control groups(P=0.029)
but there was no significant difference in genotype distribution between two groups.Logistic regression analysis revealed that hypertension
diabete mellitus and smoking history were independent risk factors for the incidence of CAD
but T allele was not.Conclusion:The frequency of eNOS gene G894T mutation in the CAD group is higher than that in the control group and T allele may be related to with the development of CAD.
