Abstract excerpt

Molecular variants of angiotensinogen (AGT) have been associated with AGT level and hypertension (HT). However, results from reported studies vary considerably between- and within-studied populations. We performed association analysis of AGT gene variants with AGT levels and HT in samples of African descent families, including 595 Nigerians and 901 African Americans. We evaluated association using haplotypes...
