No effect on blood pressure level or variability of polymorphisms in DNA at the locus for atrial natriuretic factor (ANF).

Clinical genetics - 1 Dec 1994

Berge K E, Berg K

Abstract excerpt

We have examined healthy Norwegians with respect to two restriction fragment length polymorphisms at the locus for atrial natriuretic factor, detectable with the restriction enzymes XhoI and BglI, respectively. No association with systolic or diastolic blood pressure level or variability was foun...
