Analysis of selected promoter polymorphisms and haplotypes of theCYBAgene encoding the p22phox, subunit of NADPH oxidases, in patients with coronary artery disease

The p22phox is a critical component of vascular NADPH oxidases and is encoded by the CYBA gene. It was shown that functionally relevant polymorphisms of the CYBA gene -930A > G, -852C > G, -675A > T, -536C > T, 214C > T (previously described as 242C > T), *24A > G (previously described as 640A > G), and *49A > G modulate generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). To analyse whether the CYBA gene polymorphisms -852C > G, -675A > T, and -536C >...
