The angiotensinogen gene locus (1q42-43) has been linked to hypertension in affected relative-pair studies (including a previous UK study), but the role of the Met-->Thr polymorphism at position 235 remains controversial. Using this marker, we investigated the relationship between angiotensinogen genotype and blood pressure in two data sets from the East Anglia region of the United Kingdom. Two hundred...
