OP-063 T-786-c Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene Polymorphism and Coronary Collateral Circulation




Aim


In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between Thymidine 786 Cytosine polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide (eNOS) gene and coronary collateral circulation (CCC).




Method


286 patients having a critical stenosis (> 95%) in at least one major epicardial coronary vessel were included in the study. CCC was defined according to Rentrop classification (R). The patients with R0-1 CCC were included in poor CCC group and subjects with R2-3 CCC were considered as good CCC group. Polymerase chain reaction method was used for genotyping. 152 patients with poor CCC and 134 patients with good CCC were examined.
