0.600 AlteredExpression group BEFREE Several signalling pathways have been studied and related to the development and progression of RH: modulation of sympathetic activity by leptin and aldosterone, primary aldosteronism, arterial stiffness, endothelial dysfunction and variations in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). miRNAs comprise a family of small non-coding RNAs that participate in the regulation of gene expression at post-transcriptional level. miRNAs are involved in the development of both cardiovascular damage and hypertension. 29184046 2017

Disease: Hypertensive disease
Hypertensive disease
0.600 GeneticVariation group BEFREE Our results showing that higher blood pressure levels were found with the most prevalent -2548G>A genotype, whereas patients with the AA genotype seemed to be protected from hypertension, indicate that the -2548G>A polymorphism of LEP appears to be an important mediator of obesity hypertension. 19229195 2009
