Objective: To identify the A1166/C polymorphism of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene in patients with essential hypertension complicated with brain infarction (BI).
Methods: AT1R genotyping with polymerase chain reaction-restrictive fragment length polymorphism was performed in 70 normotensive subjects, 72 hypertensive patients without cardio-cerebrovascular diseases(EH-NCCVD) and 70 hypertensive patients with BI. The relationship between the polymorphism of AT1R gene and plasma lipid levels was also studied.
