Clinical Science, 12/12/07
Xue, H., et al. - Recent studies suggest that the ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide)/NPRA (type A natriuretic peptide receptor) system modulates ventricular remodelling and cardiac hypertrophy in hypertension in Western populations. In the present study, we tested for any association between two SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the ANP gene (one in the promoter and one exonic) with cardiac hypertrophy...In conclusion, our findings indicate that the -A2843G polymorphism in the ANP gene promoter might be a genetic risk factor for the development of LVH in patients with hypertension
