Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare, lethal disease associated with single gene disorders, connective tissue disease, exposures to anorexigens, and often, idiopathic etiology. Genes can modify the risk of PAH: (1) monogenic disorders associated with PAH are incompletely penetrant, and (2) not all patients with associated conditions at increased risk for PAH develop the disease. The renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) provides a set of candidate genes that could modulate pulmonary vascular disease similar to its effects on renal and peripheral vasculature.
