We assessed the relationship between AGT gene M235T polymorphism and the susceptibility to cancer by performing an updated meta-analysis. This study retrospectively searched related articles in the electronic databases. Afterwards, we determined combined odds ratios (ORs) and related 95% confidence intervals (CIs) by the fixed- or random-effects model. The present meta-analysis enrolled altogether 9 articles. On the whole, the relationship between AGT M235T polymorphism and the cancer risk was not significant among the entire population (TT vs. MM: OR = 1.28, 95%CI = 0.80 - 2.04; TM vs. MM: OR = 0.90, 95%CI = 0.53 - 1.52; recessive model: OR = 1.13, 95%CI = 0.83 - 1.52; dominant model: OR = 0.93, 95%CI = 0.55 - 1.57). Subgroup analysis by ethnicity, cancer type, and study quality for the relationship between the AGT M235T polymorphism and cancer risk showed no significant association. According to findings in the present meta-analysis, AGT M235T polymorphism may not be related to cancer susceptibility.

Introduction: Exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) is one of the severe complications attributable to prolonged and repeated muscle exercises and is most commonly seen in military personnel and elite athletes. In military personnel, ER usually results from the long and strenuous nature of military training and may sometimes result in severe outcomes, such as acute kidney injury (AKI) and cardiac arrhythmias. Besides, muscle tissue injuries impair physical function, decreasing strength and flexibility and delaying muscle soreness and inflammation.

Team handball performance relies on physical and technical abilities, influenced by environmental and genetic factors. Variants in ACTN3 R577X (rs1815739), BDKRB2 -9/+9 (rs5810761), and AGT Met235Thr (rs699) genes are associated with athletic performance, but their relevance in handball remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association of these polymorphisms with physical performance in Brazilian junior handball players.

Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious condition characterized by hypertension and proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation. The exact cause of PE is unknown but may involve abnormalities in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). Genetic variations in angiotensinogen (AGT), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and eNOS genes have been associated with PE.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerular disease. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the development of IgAN. Polymorphisms in genetic loci coding for the RAS may be associated with IgAN progression.

Article Synopsis
- Genetic factors, notably the AGT M235T variant, were studied in relation to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) among 504 Vietnamese patients, aiming to analyze their impact on coronary atherosclerosis and 12-month mortality rates.
- The study found that the majority of patients had the TT genotype, and there were no significant differences in coronary artery conditions or mortality between different genotype groups.
- The conclusion indicated that the AGT M235T variant showed no association with atherosclerosis or mortality within the 12-month follow-up, suggesting a need for larger studies to confirm these findings.
