Abstract excerpt
In order to determine whether Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 (PPARgamma2) gene contributes to susceptibility to primary hypertension and metabolic lipid disorders, 482 unrelated subjects from Inner Mongolia were studied, including 137 healthy normotensive (controls) and 345 hypertensive subjects. PCR-RFLP was used to determine the genotypes of Pro12Ala variants of...
