Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Increased arterial stiffness is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The estrogen system (estrogen and estrogen receptor-alpha [ER-alpha]) has potent vasodilator and antiatherosclerotic activity in vascular tissue and therefore was implicated in the regulation of arterial stiffness. We hypothesized that the relationship between arterial stiffness and gene polymorphisms in ER-alpha...
