Telomere length is associated with ACE I/D polymorphism in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy
Introduction: Short telomeres are often associated with cardiovascular risk factors and age-related diseases, while the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion polymorphism (DD, ID, II) has shown such associations less consistently. We hypothesized that telomere length and associ...
