Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Several studies have indicated that a region on human chromosome 17 may influence blood pressure. Our group reported positive linkage for hypertension to the region on human chromosome 17, between D17S1814 and D17S800 in white sibling pairs. In this study, we further investigated this result by examining the phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT) gene, which is located at 17q21 within the...
