Association of AGTR1 (rs5186), VDR (rs2228570) genes polymorphism with blood pressure elevation in patients with essential arterial hypertension.

ABSTRACT: Essential arterial hypertension (EAH) is a polygenic disease due to environmental, genetic, and epigenomic factors. The study aimed to establish the association of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of AGTR1 (rs5186) and VDR (rs2228570) genes with the blood pressure (BP) elevation in EAH patients. 100 EAH subjects with hypertensive-mediated organ damaging (2^nd stage), moderate, high, or very high cardiovascular risk were recruited into the case-control study. There were 70.83% females and 29.17% males, mean age 57.86±7.81 y.o. The control group included 60 healthy individuals of relevant age and gender distribution. Estimation of AGTR1 (rs5186) and VDR (rs2228570) gene polymorphism was performed by Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction. In EAH patients, the AGTR1 gene (rs5186) m
