Popis: Hypertension is a prevalent complex polygenic disease mandating directive concerted multidisciplinary efforts in the dissection of its genetic basis. Identification of the genes involved in the etiology of genetic hypertension (hypertension genes) will lead to an elucidation of primary pathogenic mechanisms of hypertension, target organ complications, and interactions with environmental factors. This can thus form the basis for directive integrated management of hypertension.
