Nitric Oxide Synthase 2 Polymorphisms (rs2779248T/C and rs1137933C/T) and the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Zahedan, Southeastern Iran

Nitric Oxide Synthase 2 Polymorphisms (rs2779248T/C and rs1137933C/T) and the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Zahedan, Southeastern Iran

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) has been associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D). NO is synthesized enzymatically from l-arginine (l-Arg) by three NO synthase (NOS) isoforms, Neuronal NOS (nNOS or NOS1), Inducible NOS (iNOS or NOS2), and Endothelial NOS (eNOS or NOS3). The impact...
