Research Article: Maternally Inherited Essential Hypertension May Be Associated with the Mutations in Mitochondrial tRNAGlu Gene
Abstract:
EH was a very common chronic disease which was becoming an urgent public health problem worldwide, it had been estimated that ~. million hypertensive patients died each year. EH was regarded as a risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke and renal failure, thus, understanding its pathophysiology had become a major research focus. Since the landmark discovery of the draft sequences of human genome, experts announced that within years they expected to determine the important of the genome as related to EH. Some great advance had been made toward the molecular basis of EH, for example, nuclear genes such as Nrf, CUL, and EIFAK had been identified to be associated with EH. However, the detailed molecular mechanism of EH was still unknown.
