Different frequencies of angiotensin-converting enzyme genotypes in older hypertensive individuals.

The Journal of clinical investigation - 1 Sept 1994

Morris B J, Zee R Y, Schrader A P

Abstract excerpt

The frequency of the D allele of an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been reported to be elevated in myocardial infarction and other patients. We therefore hypothesized that death rate of DD individuals should be increased in the population as a whole and this should be evident as a decrease in DD frequency with age. This hypothesis was tested in 118...
