Heritability and Genetic Linkage of Plasma Natriuretic Peptide Levels

24 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Natriuretic peptides play a critical role in the maintenance of salt and water homeostasis and regulation of vascular tone. Thus, interindividual variation in plasma natriuretic peptide levels may contribute to variation in susceptibility to volume overload and hypertension. It is unknown to what extent genetic factors contribute to variation in plasma natriuretic peptide levels. METHODS AND RESULTS:...
