1 [Association of polymorphism in alpha-adducin gene with antihypertensive effect of Hydrochlorothiazide]. Hydrochlorothiazide adducin 1 Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between G614T single nuclear polymorphism (SNP) of the alpha-adducin gene and the antihypertensive effect of hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in essential hypertensive (EH) patients. Hydrochlorothiazide adducin 1 Homo sapiens
3 OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between G614T single nuclear polymorphism (SNP) of the alpha-adducin gene and the antihypertensive effect of hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in essential hypertensive (EH) patients. Hydrochlorothiazide adducin 1 Homo sapiens
4 RESULTS: After 6 weeks of HCTZ treatment, the decreases in DBP and MAP of patients carrying 614T allele of alpha-adducin were significantly greater than that of those carrying GG homozygotes (P < 0.05). Hydrochlorothiazide adducin 1 Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSION: The present study suggests that the alpha-adducin G614T polymorphism is associated with the antihypertensive effect of HCTZ, which is more effective in patients with TT genotype. Hydrochlorothiazide adducin 1 Homo sapiens
