Introduction[edit | edit source]

Hypertension (HPT) is known to be a complex heterogeneous condition controlled by many genes. The factors that regulate HPT have a strong genetic component, but the precise genes involved in HTN development are not well known. The drug therapy available for HPT do not always prevent the occurrence of high BP.

  • 18 genotype/phenotype groups have been found to be linked nearly 1/2 of the primary HPT populations, giving a pathway to discover treatment/prevention better individual primary HPT treatments.[1]
  • Novel drug treatment approaches are needed that use this genetic approach and personalized medicine.[2]
