Abstract excerpt
The bradykinin receptor B₂ (BDKRB₂) gene +9/-9 polymorphism has been associated with higher gene transcriptional activity, and characteristics of cardiovascular phenotypes and physical performance. We hypothesized that vasodilation and ACE activity response to exercise training is modulated by BDKRB₂ gene. We genotyped 71 healthy volunteers were genotyped for the BDKRB₂ gene polymorphism. Heart rate (HR), mean...
