Association between the C34T polymorphism of the AMPD1 gene and essential hypertension in Malaysian patients

Abstract: ABSTRACT. The aim of this study was to determine whether C34T, a common polymorphism of the adenosine monophosphate deaminase 1 gene (AMPD1), is associated with essential hypertension (EH). We hypothesize that C34T is associated with the development of EH. A casecontrol design was used for this study. The DNA was extracted using a commercial kit from the whole blood of 200 patients with hypertension and 200 subjects without hypertension from selected Malaysian ethnicities (Malays, Chinese, and Indians). Polyme… Show more

“…Indeed, ADA activity and platelet aggregation could serve as peripheral markers for the development of therapy for the maintenance of homeostasis and inflammatory processes in hypertension and hypertension-associated pathologies [ 205 ]. A genetic study with hypertensive patients showed that a common polymorphism (C34 T) of the ADA gene (isoform 1) is strongly correlated with hypertension [ 206 ].…”

“…A family history of hypertension means that individuals are more likely to suffer hypertension [ 3 , 4 ]. Maternally inherited essential hypertension (MIEH) is EH that shows a pattern of maternal inheritance and is occasionally observed in the clinic [ 5 ].…”

“…Human studies have shown increase in ADA activity and expression in response to hypertension and hypertension-associated pathologies, such as metabolic syndrome [ 108 ]. A genetic study with hypertensive patients showed that a common polymorphism (C34T) of the ADA gene (isoform 1) is strongly correlated with essential hypertension [ 109 ]. ADA activity is also increased in both platelets and lymphocytes in an animal model of hypertension induced by L-NAME administration [ 81 , 104 106 ].…”
