Abstract excerpt
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays a key role in the regulation of blood pressure (BP). Mutations on the genes that encode components of the RAAS have played a significant role in genetic susceptibility to hypertension and have been intensively scrutinized. The identification of such probably causal mutations not only provides insight into the RAAS but may also serve as antihypertensive...
