We speculate that fibroblast growth factor 23 produced by cardiac fibroblasts in response to cytokines may act in a paracrine manner to accelerate left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction in hBAC-S100 mice with CKD.

We searched for EDN1 variants in 145 Spanish patients with an essential form of LVH (not secondary to hypertension, aortic stenosis, or any other disease that could explain the hypertrophy).
We report the identification of a novel nonsense mutation in FHL1 gene, associated with left ventricular hypertrophy and a family history of stroke and sudden cardiac death.
We recently reported that left ventricular hypertrophy is accompanied by increased myocardial p22-phox expression in aortic-banded rats, suggesting that this protein might be involved in hypertensive cardiac hypertrophy.
We previously reported that 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib (DM-celecoxib), a celecoxib derivative that is unable to inhibit cyclooxygenase-2, prevented cardiac remodeling by activating glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) and prolonged the lifespan of heart failure mice with genetic dilated cardiomyopathy or transverse aortic constriction-induced left ventricular hypertrophy.
We performed a haplotype- and diplotype-based case-control study to investigate the association between the HSD3B gene variations and essential hypertension (EH), aldosterone level, and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH).

We performed a comprehensive analysis of SNPs, linkage disequilibrium (LD), and haplotype structure across the entire GHSR gene region (99.3 kb) in 178 pedigrees with multiple obese members (DNA of 1,095 Caucasians) and in an independent sample of the general population (MONICA Augsburg left ventricular hypertrophy substudy; DNA of 1,418 Caucasians).
We observed a statistically significant difference both for AGT and AT1R genotype distribution in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy compared with controls (p<0.05).
We measured leucocyte telomere length (LTL) by Southern blot and analysed ACE I/D genotypes in 1249 subjects with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH).
We investigated whether the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1-R) A/C1166 polymorphism, the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism, and/or plasma renin influence LVH in HCM.

We investigated the role of three renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) gene polymorphisms in the development of LVH in hypertensive patients with a diagnosis of HFpEF.
We identified a novel 5-base pair (bp) insertion/deletion (5I/5D) polymorphism within the CnB promoter region and investigated its association with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in 368 severe hypertensive participants (53% African Americans) in the Hypertension Genetic Epidemiology Network study.
We hypothesized that slow rates of CKD progression in the Col4a3 knockout (Col4a3KO) mouse model of CKD would promote development of LVH by prolonging exposure to elevated FGF23.

We genotyped five polymorphisms of the AGT, ACE, AT1R, 5-HT2A, and 5-HTT genes in 245 patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM; 205 without an identified sarcomeric gene mutation), in 145 patients with LVH secondary to hypertension, and 300 healthy controls.
