Transforming growth factor-beta 1 production is correlated with genetically determined ACE expression in congenic rats: a possible link between ACE genotype and diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic background appears to modulate the development of diabetic vascular complications. In particular, polymorphisms in the ACE gene have been associated with diabetic nephropathy and, in some studies, macrovascular complications. However, the links between ACE gene polymorphism and factors im...
