Sex, genes and blood pressure.

Clinical and experimental pharmacology & physiology - 1 Dec 2001

Ellis J A, Wong Z Y, Stebbing M, Harrap S B

Abstract excerpt

1. Throughout most of life, males have higher average blood pressures than females. This sexual dichotomy may be related to genetic factors including the X and Y sex chromosomes and genes that control sex steroids. Resultant physiological differences between men and women may also be relevant to the quantitative variation of blood pressure within the sexes. 2. The present overview collates our published and novel...
