Abstract excerpt
Large numbers of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for blood pressure (BP) exist and have long been thought to function by accumulating their individual miniscule effects. Recent experimental evidence in the functional biology of BP control has tested this intuitive assumption. A new paradigm has emerged that BP is biologically determined in modularity by multiple QTLs. Functionally, when a master regulator is taken...
