Deletion/insertion polymorphism in the angiotension-converting enzyme gene as a risk factor in the Slovenian patients with coronary heart disease.

Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology - 1 Jan 2000

Peterlin B, Petrovic D, Zorc M, Keber I

Abstract excerpt

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) plays by degradation of angiotensin I and bradykinin, an important role in modulations of smooth muscle proliferation and vascular tone. Typical plasma levels of ACE accompany the I/D polymorphism; however, a controversy exists as to whether the DD genotype of the ACE polymorphism affects the risk for the development of coronary heart disease (CHD). We compared the I/D...
