Distribution of Polymorphic Marker of Genes of the Renin-angiotensin System RAS (AGT, AGTR1, АСЕ), ITGB3, PPARG) in Pa-tients With Essential Arterial Hypertension Depending on the Nature of the Nocturnal De-crease of BP

A clinical-genetic study using ABPM (24-hour BP monitoring) and Holter’s ECG methods in 49 pa-tients with essential arterial hypertension (group 1: 17 patients without sufficient nocturnal BP de-crease СI≤10%, and group 2: 32 patients with suf-ficient nocturnal BP decrease СI≥10%,) was per-formed for comparative analysis of the genotype frequencies of ACE, AGT, AGTR1, ITGB3, and PPARG. The study was conducted in order to clari-fy the pathogenetic mechanisms of the implementa-tion of different dynamics of nocturnal blood pres-sure in patients with hypertension without metabol-ic syndrome. It was found that in group 1, protec-tive genotype II of the ACE gene was more com-mon (p ≤ 0.025) than in the population data. A sig-nificant increase (p ≤ 0.025) in the frequency of the CC genotype of the AGTR1 gene responsible for the formation of insulin resistance compared to the population data was combined with a significant increase in the frequency of autonomic dysfunction in patients of group 1 - 83.4% vs. 64.5% group 2 respectively. The results obtained indicate the pos-sible pathogenetic links between genetically deter-mined insulin resistance and autonomic nervous system dysfunction and allows us to determine therapeutic approaches for correcting the noctur-nal blood pressure profile.
