[PMID: 38621507 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2024] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024]
Abstract
Primary hypertension is a multiplex and multifactorial disease influenced by various strong components including genetics. Extensive research such as Genome-wide association studies and candidate gene studies have revealed various single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to hypertension, providing insights into the genetic basis of the condition. This review summarizes the current status of SNP research in primary hypertension, including examples of hypertension-related SNPs, their location, function, and frequency in different populations. The potential clinical implications of SNP research for primary hypertension management are also discussed, including disease risk prediction, personalized medicine, mechanistic understanding, and lifestyle modifications. Furthermore, this review highlights emerging technologies and methodologies that have the potential to revolutionize the vast understanding of the basis of genetics in primary hypertension. Gene editing holds the potential to target and correct any kind of genetic mutations that contribute to the development of hypertension or modify genes involved in blood pressure regulation to prevent or treat the condition. Advances in computational biology and machine learning enable researchers to analyze large datasets and identify complex genetic interactions contributing to hypertension risk. In conclusion, SNP research in primary hypertension is rapidly evolving with emerging technologies and methodologies that have the potential to transform the knowledge about genetic basis related to the condition. These advances hold promise for personalized prevention and treatment strategies tailored to an individual's genetic profile ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.

Oxf Med Case Reports 2024; 2024:omae042. [PMID: 38784773 PMCID: PMC11110861 DOI: 10.1093/omcr/omae042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
We report the case of a 5-year-old boy diagnosed with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 11-hydroxylase deficiency, revealed by disorders of sex development (DSD) and acute pulmonary edema due to severe hypertension. We considered the diagnosis based on biological and radiological examinations. The sociocultural background and the delayed diagnosis had a significant impact on the therapeutic decisions. All babies should be screened for 11 beta-hydroxylase deficiency, there should be specialized and interdisciplinary medical centers, and early detection is essential to avoiding serious complications of this disease.

Kidney Int 2023; 103:485-500. [PMID: 36646167 DOI: 10.1016/j.kint.2022.12.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Hypertension (HT) is a major cardiovascular risk factor that affects 10% to 40% of the general population in an age-dependent manner. Detection of secondary forms of HT is particularly important because it allows the targeted management of the underlying disease. Among hypertensive patients, the prevalence of endocrine HT reaches up to 10%. Adrenal diseases are the most frequent cause of endocrine HT and are associated with excess production of mineralocorticoids (mainly primary aldosteronism), glucocorticoids (Cushing syndrome), and catecholamines (pheochromocytoma). In addition, a few rare diseases directly affecting the action of mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids in the kidney also lead to endocrine HT. Over the past years, genomic and genetic studies have allowed improving our knowledge on the molecular mechanisms of endocrine HT. Those discoveries have opened new opportunities to transfer knowledge to clinical practice for better diagnosis and specific treatment of affected subjects. In this review, we describe the physiology of adrenal hormone biosynthesis and action, the clinical and biochemical characteristics of different forms of endocrine HT, and their underlying genetic defects. We discuss the impact of these discoveries on diagnosis and management of patients, as well as new perspectives related to the use of new biomarkers for improved patient care.
