Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for Association and Genetic Linkage of the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Locus With Hypertension and Blood Pressure in Men but Not Women in the Framingham Heart Study
Christopher J. O'Donnell,Klaus Lindpaintner,Martin G. Larson,Valluri S. Rao,Jose M. Ordovas,Ernst J. Schaefer,Richard H. Myers,Daniel Levy +7 more
TL;DR: There is evidence for association and genetic linkage of the ACE locus with hypertension and with diastolic blood pressure in men but not women, and the hypothesis that ACE, or a nearby gene, is a sex-specific candidate gene for hypertension is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased Platelet Aggregability Associated With Platelet GPIIIa PlA2 Polymorphism : The Framingham Offspring Study
DaLi Feng,Klaus Lindpaintner,Klaus Lindpaintner,Martin G. Larson,Valluri S. Rao,Christopher J. O'Donnell,Izabella Lipinska,Christian Schmitz,Patrice Sutherland,Halit Silbershatz,Ralph B. D'Agostino,James E. Muller,Richard H. Myers,Daniel Levy,Geoffrey H. Tofler +14 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that molecular variants of the gene encoding GP IIIa play a role in platelet reactivity in vitro and are compatible with and provide an explanation for the reported association of the PlA2 allotype with increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three Candidate Genes and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor–Related Cough: A Pharmacogenetic Analysis
TL;DR: Genotypes for common polymorphisms for ACE, chymase, and B2-bradykinin receptor do not explain the occurrence of ACE inhibitor-related cough, and there was no evidence for association between genotype at either gene examined and cough.
