No association between alleles of the bradykinin receptor-B2 gene and acute mountain sickness.

Experimental biology and medicine (Maywood, N.J.) - 1 Jun 2010

Wang Pei, Koehle Michael S, Rupert Jim L

Abstract excerpt

The pathophysiological mechanism(s) of the development of acute mountain sickness (AMS) is still unclear. Although the chance of developing AMS and the severity of the condition are influenced by ascent rate and altitude attained, previous history is a reliable predictor of subsequent affliction, and some individuals and families are clearly predisposed, suggesting a genetic component to susceptibility. As the...
