Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Recently, a novel C825T polymorphism in the gene (GNB3) encoding for the G-protein beta3 subunit was identified. The 825T allele is associated with the generation of a novel splice variant, enhanced intracellular signal transduction, and arterial hypertension. In this study, we investigated the impact of the 825T allele on left ventricular structure and function in mild to moderate essential...
