Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To assess the association of tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tag SNPs) of chymase gene (CMA1) with essential hypertension in Yi population from Yunnan, China. METHODS: A case-control study was carried out. Four tag SNPs(rs1956921, rs1800876, rs5244 and rs1885108) were genotyped in 303 patients with essential hypertension and 312 healthy controls using polymerase chain reaction - restriction...
