β-T594M epithelial sodium channel gene polymorphism and essential hypertension in individuals of Indo-Aryan ancestry in Northern India

Background: The T594M variant of the β-subunit of the sodium epithelial channel (ENaC) gene may contribute to hypertension in individuals of Indo-Aryan origin. Methods: Present study was performed to assess the role of the ENaC gene variant as an independent risk factor for hypertension in subjects...
