Abstract
Hypertension (HTN) is one of the cardiovascular disease risk factors. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1 alpha (PPARGC1A) is involved in a master modulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, and pulmonary arterial hypertension. In this study, we report results of PPARGC1A were associated with hypertension and its intermediate phenotype of systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in the Korean population. In detail, identifying a susceptibility locus, 3 SNPs for HTN, 2 SNPs for SBP, 3 SNPs for DBP at P<0.05. Among them, rs1472095 in PPARGC1A gene statistically demonstrated one of the significant correlations with Hypertension (P-value=0.00359, OR=0.8, 95% CI=0.68~0.93). The minor allele (T) of PPARGC1A was statistically associated with the increased value of DBP, SBP, and the increase risk of hypertension. We aim to manifest a significant association between genetic variant in PPARGC1A and hypertension. This finding suggested that association of PPARGC1A genetic polymorphism and HTN accelerates our understanding of blood pressure control and underlines potential drug targets for treatment of hypertension.
