Genetic variants in novel pathways influence blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk : Nature : Nature Publishing Group

nature.com — “Blood pressure is a heritable trait influenced by several biological pathways and responsive to environmental stimuli. Over one billion people worldwide have hypertension ([ge]140[thinsp]mm[thinsp]Hg systolic blood pressure or[thinsp][ge]90[thinsp]mm[thinsp]Hg diastolic blood pressure). Even small increments in blood pressure are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. This genome-wide association study of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, which used a multi-stage designView full resource at nature.com

Genome-wide hunts reveal new regulators of blood pressure

eurekalert.org — “A study involving more than 200,000 people worldwide has identified 29 DNA sequence variations in locations across the human genome that influence blood pressure. These genes, whose sequence changes are associated with alterations in blood pressure and are linked to heart disease and stroke, were found with the help of decades' worth of population data that were pooled and analyzed by a large international consortium, including Johns Hopkins researchers.View full resource at eurekalert.org
