The genetics of blood pressure regulation and its target organs from association studies in 342,415 individuals

Patricia Munroe, Christopher Newton-Cheh, Andrew Morris and colleagues perform association studies in over 340,000 individuals of European ancestry and identify 66 loci, of which 17 are novel, involved in blood pressure regulation. The risk SNPs are enriched for <i>cis</i>-regulatory ele...

Description
Summary:Patricia Munroe, Christopher Newton-Cheh, Andrew Morris and colleagues perform association studies in over 340,000 individuals of European ancestry and identify 66 loci, of which 17 are novel, involved in blood pressure regulation. The risk SNPs are enriched for <i>cis</i>-regulatory elements, particularly in vascular endothelial cells.
