2020-03-09
Abstract excerpt
Renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) holds a crucial role in blood pressure regulation. Aldosterone is encoded by the cytochrome 11B2 aldosterone synthase gene (CYP11B2). The study aim was to analyze the association of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) with allelic polymorphism of the CYP11B2 at position -344 (-344C/T) in the promoter in patients with essential arterial hypertension (EAH). 72 subjects with EAH a...
