Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To examine and compare angiotensin II type 1 receptor genotype and its relationship to platelet angiotensin II binding for pre-eclamptic and normotensive pregnant women. DESIGN: In a case-control study, 43 pre-eclamptic women and 83 normotensive women were genotyped at the angiotensin II type 1 receptor gene locus. Platelet angiotensin II binding was measured for a subset of 11 pre-eclamptic and 57...
