Haplotype-based association of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system genes polymorphisms with essential hypertension among Han Chinese: the Fangshan study
18 Jun 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Widely evaluated regarding the genetic make-up of essential hypertension are the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) genes polymorphisms, whereas results are often not reproducible.

Genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length...
