Apelin polymorphism predicts blood pressure response to losartan in older Chinese women with essential hypertension

J. Jia, Men, C., Tang, K. - T., and Zhan, Y. - Y., Apelin polymorphism predicts blood pressure response to losartan in older Chinese women with essential hypertension, vol. 14, pp. 6561-6568, 2015.

We determined whether the blood pressure response to losartan in an older Chinese population with essential hypertension was associated with apelin gene polymorphisms. We genotyped the -1860T>C polymorphism of the apelin gene in a case-control study of 222 patients with hypertension and 250 controls.
