Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the association between VEGF-A (rs10434, rs3025040) gene polymorphisms and polymorphisms associated with VEGF-A levels (POLR1C: rs4416670, rs6921438, ZFPM2: rs6993770, rs10738760) with hypertension, adiposity (BMI and waist circumference), diabetes and metabolic syndrome in the black South African population. RESULTS: No polymorphisms were associated with VEGF-A...
