Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The study aimed to analyze genes involved in Mendelian forms of low-renin hypertension in Chinese early-onset hypertensive patients. METHODS: A panel of nine genes, namely SCNN1B, SCNN1G, WNK1, WNK4, KLHL3, CUL3, nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C (NR3C)1, NR3C2, and HSD11B2 were screened by targeted resequencing in 260 Chinese early-onset hypertensive patients. Additionally, exon 13 of both SCNN1B...
