Abstract:
With the constant deepening of the study in the genetic factors of eardio-cerebrovascular diseases, the relation between the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) gene polymorphisms and hypertension is increasingly receiving attention. As an important component of RAS, renin has received much concern in the genetic research of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases and its gene polymorphisrns have become the candidate genes of hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke, etc.
