Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate whether angiotensinogen(AGT)gene 5'-flanking region C532T mutation and M235T polymorphism are associated with essential hypertension(EH) and the joint effect of the two sites. Methods A case-control study was carried out using 137 cases of essential hypertension and 114 cases of control.The C532T mutation and M235T polymorphism of the angiotensinogen gene were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR/RFLP) analysis. Results The differences of genotype distribution of the AGT gene between cases having a family history of hypertension and controls without that history were statistically significant.(MT 0.18, TT 0.77 and MM 0.05 for case genotype vs MT 0.35, TT 0.57 and MM 0.08 for control, P =0. 031) A correlation between M235T and C532T molecular variant of AGT gene to hypertension was found. Conclusion Combinations of variations in angiotensinogen gene and occupational factors might associate with essential hypertension. |
