Article Synopsis
- The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is crucial for regulating blood pressure and its polymorphisms have been linked to essential hypertension (EH), but their actual impact is unclear.
- A study involving 1,204 hypertensive patients and 647 control subjects found no significant differences in the distribution of ACE and AGT gene polymorphisms between the groups.
- The findings suggest that these specific genetic variations may contribute less to the development of hypertension than previously thought.
