Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1:CCL2) has been demonstrated to be involved in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and hypertension. This study was aimed to investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at -2518 of the MCP-1 gene promoter region is associated to hypertension in a sample of Tunisian population. DESIGN AND METHODS: A total of 290 Tunisian patients with...
