Validation of uromodulin as a candidate gene for human essential hypertension.
A recent genome-wide association study identified a locus on chromosome 16 in the promoter region of the uromodulin (UMOD) gene that is associated with hypertension. Here, we examined the hypertension signal with functional studies in Umod knockout (KO) mice. Systolic blood pressure was significantly lower in KO versus wild-type (WT) mice under basal conditions (KO: 116.6±0.3 mm Hg versus WT: 1...
متن کاملHuman SA gene locus as a candidate locus for essential hypertension.
We have recently identified a candidate gene for rat genetic hypertension by identifying an mRNA species that shows markedly higher expression in the kidneys of spontaneously hypertensive rats than in those of Wistar-Kyoto rats. By using a restriction fragment length polymorphism, we carried out cosegregation analyses between the genotype of the SA gene and blood pressure in three F2 cohorts an...
متن کاملProstasin: a possible candidate gene for human hypertension.
BACKGROUND Prostasin, a serine protease, is suggested to be a novel mechanism regulating the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) expressed in the distal nephron. This study aimed to evaluate whether the human prostasin gene is a novel candidate gene underlying blood pressure (BP) elevation. METHODS In a sample of healthy African-American (AA) and European-American (EA) twin subjects aged 17.6 +/...

Backgrounds: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have crucial roles in cellular and molecular processes related to different malignancies including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). In recent years the most studies demonstrated that the expression of miR-95, alter in several diseases. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) a heterogeneous group of non-coding and regulatory RNAs. The present study investigated the as...
