Abstract excerpt
Five candidate genes including the lipoprotein lipase, leptin, leptin receptor, alpha-adducin and beta3 adrenergic receptor were selected to examine their possible contribution to essential hypertension (EH) in a Chinese population. On each side of the candidate gene loci, one to two highly polymorphic microsatellite markers were genotyped in 474 subjects recruited from 106 hypertension nuclear families in...
