pubmed:abstractText |
Aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of aldosterone. Recently, the T allele of a polymorphism in the 5'-flanking region of the CYP11B2 gene (C-344T) has been reported to be more frequent in hypertensives than in normotensives, and has also been associated with increased plasma aldosterone levels. We therefore hypothesized that this variant may be related to increased blood-pressure response to dietary salt intake.
