Common haplotypes in the beta-2 adrenergic receptor gene are not associated with acute mountain sickness susceptibility in Nepalese.

High altitude medicine & biology - 1 Jan 2007

Wang Pei, Koehle Michael S, Rupert Jim L

Abstract excerpt

Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), the most common and least serious of the altitude-related illnesses, is frequently experienced by sojourners traveling above 2500 m. Although altitude and rate of ascent are likely the most critical factors in determining whether the condition will develop in a person, interindividual variation and patterns of susceptibility suggest that there may be genetic risk factors as well. We...
