“…Although our subgroups are small and as a consequence the power to detect differences is relatively low, the similar distribution of the CC-genotype in the patient and control populations provide evidence that the CC genotype was not associated with pre-eclampsia in a Dutch study population. Our findings in a Caucasian population are in line with the findings of Guzik et al, 4 Gardemann et al, 7 Li et al, 8 and Cahilly, 9 who found similar prevalences of the CC-genotype (45.4%, 44.3%, 45.6%, and 43.5%, respectively) and T-allele frequency (33%, 32%, 34%, and 34%, respectively) in large Caucasian populations. However, in Japanese control subjects the prevalence of the CC genotype was 73.6% 5 or 86.7% 6 compared with 51.3% in our Caucasian population.…”

“…19 SNPs at positions À930, 640 and 242 of the gene modulate superoxide production and are linked to presence of hypertension as well as increased coronary artery disease risk among hypertensives. 3,4,20 The À930A/G SNP is located at the promoter region of the gene, and regulates transcriptional activation. Hypertensive GG homozygotes show enhanced transcription of the CYBA gene, increased production of the p22 phox subunit, upregulation of NADPH oxidase activity and, ultimately, increased ROS production.…”

“…We analysed five polymorphisms, three variants which have recently been associated with anthracyclineinduced cardiotoxicity 23 and, in addition, the other two NAD(P)H oxidase variants frequently discussed in relation to several clinical phenotypes. 17,18,22 The most extensively studied NAD(P)H oxidase polymorphism is the 242C4T variant of CYBA causing His4Tyr substitution at position 72. We could not demonstrate a consistent impact of this variant on enzyme activity.…”

“…20 In marked contrast, another group observed significantly higher superoxide production in carriers of the 242T allele. 21 Gardemann et al 22 delineated an association of the 640A4G polymorphism in the 3 0 UTR of CYBA with cardiovascular arterial disease, in particular in hypertensives. This SNP might modify processing or stability of p22phox mRNA.…”
