Abstract excerpt
Endothelin is a peptide reported to be one of the most potent vasoconstrictors known. Presumably, endothelin could play a role in the physiological regulation of blood pressure in healthy or hypertensive people. We have studied a normal restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at the endothelin-I (EDN1) locus detected with the restriction enzyme TaqI. In three different series comprising 166, 120 and 207...
