G-protein beta(3) subunit gene (GNB3) 825T allele is associated with enhanced renal perfusion in early hypertension.
The C825T polymorphism of the gene encoding the G-protein beta(3) subunit (GNB3) is associated with increased intracellular signal transduction and arterial hypertension. The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of this polymorphism on early adaptive processes of the left ventricle and renal hemodynamic changes in young normotensive to mildly hypertensive subjects. Ninety-five white m...
متن کاملThe human G protein beta 3 subunit GNB3 825T polymorphism.
Meirhaeghe et al. recently showed that the T allele of a C vs T exchange at position 825 of the gene encoding for the beta3 subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins (GNB3) is associated with enhanced coronary constriction after intracoronary administration of methylergonovine. The 825T allele has also been shown to be associated with an enhanced response after activation of G protein coupled recept...
متن کاملAssociation of G-protein beta-3 subunit gene (GNB3) T825 allele with Type II diabetes.
To date, the human G-protein beta 3 subunit (GNB3) gene and some of its variants represent some of the best examples of genetic influences that are involved in the determination of hypertension and obesity, which make it a sensible candidate gene for type 2 diabetes. To assess the influence of GNB3 in type II diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), we carried out a retrospective, case-control study of varia...
متن کاملG-protein beta3-subunit gene 825T allele and hypertension: a longitudinal study in young grade I hypertensives.
The 825T allele of the GNB3 gene has been associated with essential hypertension and obesity in cross-sectional studies. We have therefore planned a longitudinal cohort study to assess whether the GNB3 825T allele is predictive of blood pressure increase in young subjects with grade I hypertension. We genotyped at the GNB3 825 locus 461 participants of the Hypertension and Ambulatory Recording ...
متن کاملG Protein b3 Subunit 825T Allele and Enhanced Coronary Vasoconstriction on a2-Adrenoceptor Activation
Recently, a2-adrenoceptor activation was shown to play an important role in the vasoconstriction of normal coronary arteries, whereas in the presence of atherosclerosis, the activation of both a1and a2-adrenoceptors reduces coronary blood flow in humans. a2-Adrenoceptors activate pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive G proteins, whereas a1-adrenoceptors couple to PTX-insensitive G proteins. Thus, the...
