Abstract excerpt
AIM: Angiotensinogen (AGT) is one of the candidate genes that has been extensively investigated for association of its variants with essential hypertension. Studies focusing on the contribution of tagged single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the AGT gene are limited and lacking from Indian population. Hence, the present study was carried out to examine the role of five tagged SNPs viz., g.6147G>A (rs7539020),...
