Background: The possible effects of the uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) gene ?3826A/G polymorphism on hypertension (HT) have yet to be elucidated.
Methods: A total of 578 Japanese subjects (231 males and 347 females, mean age 58.4 years) were enrolled in the study to investigate the association between HT and the ?3826A/G polymorphism by genomic PCR and Bcl1-restriction fragment length polymorphism methods.
Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis for HT, adjusted for genotype (recessive model, AA+AG vs...
