Association of endothelin-1 gene polymorphisms with essential hypertension in a Chinese population

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is the most potent endogenous vasoconstrictor and is involved in several vascular disorders such as hypertension. Its strong interaction with other vasoactive hormone systems suggests that the ET-1 gene (EDN1) is a potential candidate molecule that influences the risk of developing hypertension. Recently, two single nucleotide polymorphisms in ED.. Read More»

    Y.H. Liu, Y.W. Zhou, J.A.Yang, Z.G. Tu, S.Y. Ji, Z.Y. Huang and Z.J. Zhou

This study investigated 5 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotypes in susceptibility genes for coronary artery disease (CAD) and the putative involvement of these SNPs in CAD in the Chinese Han population. From March 2008 to June 2009, we selected 119 CAD patients and 115 subjects not related to the CAD of Chinese Han origin as controls. The SNP genotypes wer.. Read More»
