Genetic analysis of the SA and Na+/K+-ATPase alpha1 genes in the Milan hypertensive rat.

TL;DR: The results suggest that either SA is simply acting as marker for a linked gene in other crosses for which co-segregation with blood pressure has been observed, or at least, the level of its renal expression is not the sole determinant of its effect on blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of phenotypic consequences of renin gene polymorphism in Lyon rats.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the effect of the locus on blood pressure might be due to an as yet unidentified gene linked to renin, which is not associated with a change in the urinary excretion of aldosterone, desoxycorticosterone, corticosterone or 18-hydroxy desoxy cORTicosterone.

Metabolomics reveals a link between homocysteine and lipid metabolism and leukocyte telomere length: the ENGAGE consortium

TL;DR: Investigation of the association between LTL and serum metabolite levels in 7,853 individuals found longer LTL associated with higher levels of lysoPC a C17:0 and PC ae C38:4, and with lower levels of methionine, tyrosine, PC aa C32:1, and C3-OH.
