β2-Adrenoceptor Polymorphisms Relate to Obesity Through Blunted Leptin-Mediated Sympathetic Activation
Kazuko Masuo,Tomohiro Katsuya,Hideki Kawaguchi,Yuxiao Fu,Hiromi Rakugi,Toshio Ogihara,Michael L. Tuck +6 more
TL;DR: A strong and significant association of the Gly16 and Glu27 alleles with obesity is demonstrated and it is proposed that the beta2-adrenoceptor polymorphisms related to blunted leptin-mediated sympathetic activation offers further proof for the mechanisms of obesity.
Endothelin-1 gene variant associates with blood pressure in obese Japanese subjects: the Ohasama Study.
Takashi Asai,Takayoshi Ohkubo,Tomohiro Katsuya,Jitsuo Higaki,Yuxiao Fu,Masayuki Fukuda,Atsushi Hozawa,Mitsunobu Matsubara,Hirofumi Kitaoka,Ichiro Tsuji,Tsutomu Araki,Hiroshi Satoh,Shigeru Hisamichi,Yutaka Imai,Toshio Ogihara +14 more
TL;DR: That similar results were obtained from subjects of different races suggests that the Lys198Asn polymorphism of ET-1 is involved in determination of BP levels in obese subjects.
Lack of correlation between Mbo I restriction fragment length polymorphism of renin gene and essential hypertension in Japanese.
Yuxiao Fu,Tomohiro Katsuya,Takashi Asai,Masayuki Fukuda,Nozomu Inamoto,Yoshio Iwashima,Ken Sugimoto,Hiromi Rakugi,Jitsuo Higaki,Toshio Ogihara +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the Mbo I (+) allele of the renin gene does not increase the risk for hypertension in Japanese.
T+31C Polymorphism of Angiotensinogen Gene and Essential Hypertension
Kazuhiko Ishikawa,Shunroku Baba,Tomohiro Katsuya,Naoharu Iwai,Takashi Asai,Masayuki Fukuda,Shin Takiuchi,Yuxiao Fu,Toshifumi Mannami,Jun Ogata,Jitsuo Higaki,Toshio Ogihara +11 more
TL;DR: The TaqMan polymerase chain reaction method is a powerful tool for genetic association study with a large number of subjects and that AGT T+31C is significantly associated with paternal FH, suggesting that this positive association with FH is independent and significant.
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism: relation to blood pressure and cerebrovascular disease
Yukiko Nakata,Tomohiro Katsuya,Seiju Takami,Noriyuki Sato,Yuxiao Fu,Kazuhiko Ishikawa,Shin Takiuchi,Hiromi Rakugi,Tetsuro Miki,Jitsuo Higaki,Toshio Ogihara +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the Val/Val homozygous state of the MTHFR gene increased the risk of thrombosis, but reduced the blood pressure, which resulted in the lack of increased risk for CVD.
