DIFFERENT EFFECTS OF CAV1 rs3807990 VARIATION ON LIPID PROFILE IN PATIENTS WITH CORONARY HEART DISEASE BASED ON PRESENCE OF DIABETES

Abstract

Objective: A decreased antiatherogenic function of endothelium causes endothelial dysfunction characterized by decreased nitric oxide (NO) levels. NO amounts can be regulated by the inhibition of eNOS enzyme activity via caveolin-1 (Cav-1). We aimed to determine the effect of CAV1 rs3807990 on metabolic and lipid biomarker levels in diabetic and non-diabetic coronary heart disease (CHD) and to determine the possible contribution to diabetic dyslipidemia.
