Exhaled nitric oxide and inducible nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphism in Japanese asthmatics

Exhaled nitric oxide and inducible nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphism in Japanese asthmatics

Background: Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) induced by inflammatory cytokines and iNOS activity in bronchial epithelial cells is a major determinant of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of iNOS promoter gene polymorphisms a...
