pubmed:abstractText |
Aldosterone is one of the main effectors of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system regulating blood pressure. Previous studies have shown that the aldosterone synthase promoter polymorphism -344T/C influences aldosterone levels and is associated with hypertension, a risk factor for the initiation and progression of diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, we investigated whether the -344T/C polymorphism is associated with the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy in Type 1 diabetes mellitus.
