Association between a polymorphic poly-T repeat sequence in the promoter of the somatostatin gene and hypertension.

Hypertension research : official journal of the Japanese Society of Hypertension - 1 Jun 2016

Tremblay Monique, Brisson Diane, Gaudet Daniel

Abstract excerpt

Despite the numerous common pathways connecting blood pressure regulation to somatostatin (SST) metabolism, the SST gene has never been seen as a significant blood pressure modulator. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between a poly-T repeat sequence (rs34872250) in the promoter of the SST gene and blood pressure, according to the obesity status. We genotyped 1918 French-Canadian subjects from...
