Correlation between miRNA target site polymorphisms in 3' UTR of AVPR1A and risk of hypertension in Chinese Han population.

CONCLUSION: The single nucleotide polymorphisms rs11174811 and rs3803107 in the AVPR1A gene are associated with an increased risk of hypertension in the Chinese Han population. This may be related to the effect of these variants on the regulation of AVPR1A expression by miRNAs. PMID: 31053625 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
