Genetic Variants of C-5312T REN Increased Renin Levels and Diastolic Blood Pressure Response to Angiotensin Receptor Blockers
Renin catalyzes the cleavage of angiotensinogen into angiotensin I. Genetic variant C-5312T of renin enhancer has been reported to increase in vitro renin gene transcription. However, no obvious in vivo study was performed to see the renin level in C-5312T when treated with angiotensin receptor blo...
