NADPH Oxidase Polymorphisms in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS)

NCT01141829 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2010-06-11

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is associated with increased oxidative stress. The major sources of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the vasculature are the NADPH oxidases. Several polymorphisms related to NADPH oxidase expression or NADPH oxidase activity has been identified. The investigators are going to compare the distribution of the allelic frequencies of A-930G and C242T polymorphisms and their possible relationship with the levels of 8-isoprostanes as a marker of oxidative stress in patients with OSA and in a control group without OSA.
