Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: An insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the gene for angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is associated with higher ACE plasma levels and activity. This enzyme is known to play an important role in blood pressure regulation and the ACE I/D gene polymorphism has been suggested as a risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular diseases. The purpose of the present study was to investigate a hypothesized...
