Abstract
A case-control study was conducted for the indigenous population living in the Arctic territory of Yakutia to determine the association of the M235T polymorphism of the AGT gene with hypertension and its risk factors. A higher average blood pressure, elevated cholesterol and its fractions, a higher incidence of abdominal obesity in carriers of the mutant GG genotype were found both in the general population and separately for people with hypertension. The study shows the contribution of the G allele of the AGT gene to the development of hypertension, lipid disorders and abdominal obesity.
