Abstract excerpt
1. Plasma dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase-1 (DCP1; angiotensin I-converting enzyme, kininase II; EC 3.4.15.1) tracks with the deletion allele in genotypes of a 287 bp insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of its gene, DCP1, in healthy Caucasian populations. The aim of the present study was to see whether genotype has a similar influence on plasma DCP1 in hypertensives. 2. The study involved 35 Caucasian patients with...
