The interaction of and gene polymorphisms with conventional risk factors increases predisposition to hypertension

Renin-angiotensin and kallikrein-kinin systems are interconnected, regulating blood pressure homeostasis. We have demonstrated the interactions among polymorphisms of the angiotensinogen ( AGT ) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase ( NOS3 ) genes and conventional risk factors affecting the hyperten...
