Involvement of various gene mutations in hypertension have been already reported, including GST (detoxification Phase II enzymes), with contrasting results. This study analyzes a possible association between GSTM1-null and GSTT1-null polymorphisms and the hypertension status in a very old population (>80 years).

Abstract
Involvement of various gene mutations in hypertension have been already reported, including GST (detoxification Phase II enzymes), with contrasting results. This study analyzes a possible association between GSTM1-null and GSTT1-null polymorphisms and the hypertension status in a very old population (>80 years).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
