Gene expression responses of threespine stickleback to salinity: implications for salt-sensitive hypertension

Despite some recent success with genome-wide association studies (GWAS), identifying hypertension (HTN)-susceptibility loci in the general population remains difficult. Here, we present a novel strategy to address the challenge by studying salinity adaptation in the threespine stickleback, a fish sp...
