C242T polymorphism of the p22 phox gene; an essential component of NADPH oxidase in vasculature; and Glu298Asp polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene have been recently implicated as genetic markers for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in many studies. In addition, there is accumulating data that AMI is related to recent onset activation of inflammation affecting atherosclerotic plaques
