Influence of Gender and Genetic Variability on Plasma Angiotensin Peptides

Abstract

Significant correlations were found between Ang I and Ang II as well as between Ang II and Ang-(1-7) in the different study group distributions. No correlation was found between levels of Ang I and Ang-(1-7). Certain genotypes exert an influence on angiotensin peptide plasma levels which can only be seen when the population is divided according to gender.
