Description
We previously described an association between the -344C/T 5'-untranslated region (UTR) polymorphism in the CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) gene and hypertension with a raised aldosterone to renin ratio (ARR); the same genetic variant is also associated with impaired adrenal 11beta-hydroxylase efficiency.
