OBJECTIVE: We sought to establish an association between preeclampsia and the methionine to threonine polymorphism at amino acid residue 235 (Met235Thr) in angiotensinogen in a Hispanic population. We looked for a relationship between this allele and the allele in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene (NOS3) that produces the A form (NOS3*A) with respect to preeclampsia. STUDY DESIGN: Clinical data were...
