Background: High blood pressure is the main cause of cardiovascular
diseases. Kidney damage is one of the most common organ secondary damage to
hypertension. The study of hypertension gene polymorphisms is an important means
of precision treatment of primary hypertension. Objectives: The
objective of this study was to explore the relationship between AGTR1
(c.1166 AC) gene polymorphisms and hypertension combined with kidney damage,
while exploring the relationship between codominant, dominant and recessive gene
model and hypertension with kidney injury and the susceptibility of different
genotypes to hypertension with kidney injury. Methods: The distribution
of AGTR1 polymorphism in the AGTR1 in hypertensive patients (hypertension group,
292 patients) and hypertension with kidney injury patients (44 patients) were
detected and compared by PCR-melting curve method. Results: The genotype
distribution of hypertension and combined groups met Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
(p 0.05); the distribution difference between the three genotypes
was statistically significant (p 0.05), the codominant, dominant and
recessive distribution frequency of genotypes (p 0.05), and no
difference between A allele and C allele (p 0.05).
Conclusions: Our study identified the relationship of AGTRA (c.1166
AC) with hypertension combined with renal injury, and compared the
susceptibility of different genetic models, which may provide novel targets for
precision gene therapy of hypertension. Clinical Trial Registration: URL: https://www.chictr.org.cn/indexEN.html; Unique identifier: ChiCTR2100051472.
