Genetic polymorphisms of endothelial marker, connexin and acyl-CoA genes among ethnic Malay subjects with essential hypertension

Hypertension is a complex multifactorial disorder that is thought to result from an interaction between an individual’s genetic background and various lifestyle also environmental factors. Essential hypertension (EH) are majority of hypertensive cases and diagnosed where there is no cl...

There have been variety of genetic studies is relation to hypertension and some of them showed association with occurrence of hypertension. Family of Endotheline1 (EDN-1) and Endothelin converting enzyme (ECE) vasoconstricting peptide produced by vascular endothelial. Recent studies proposed that there was significant difference between EDN-1 lys198Asn(rs5370) and ECE (rs212526) with essential hypertension.

The main objective of this study was to determine the candidate gene polymorphism and gene expression involved in essential hypertension among Malay subjects.

In gene expression demonstrated significant differences between expression of ACMS3gene at the mRNA level in patients with hypertension compare with control group.
