Genetic variations of SCNA7 and blood pressure potassium interaction

Abstract Introduction The sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 7 (SCN7A) has been associated to renal Na regulation and hypertension. This study explores the relationship between blood pressure (BP) and urinary overnight Na/K ratio (UONaK) in hypertensives (HT) and normotensive (NT) subjects f...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Introduction The sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 7 (SCN7A) has been associated to renal Na regulation and hypertension. This study explores the relationship between blood pressure (BP) and urinary overnight Na/K ratio (UONaK) in hypertensives (HT) and normotensive (NT) subjects from from National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute funded, Family Blood Pressure Program (FBPP) that were genotyped for 3 SNPs for SCN7A: CV2161217, CV 356958 and CV433036. Hypothesis Genetic variations in the SCNA7 are differently associated to BP and UONaK in HT and NT. Methods 1,749 subjects genotyped for SCN7A SNPs CV2161217, CV 356958 and CV433036 were analyzed from FBPP. Subjects with diastolic BP (DBP) ≥80 or systolic BP (SBP) ≥130 mmHg were classified HTN; subjects with SBP
