Association of Common Variants in NPPA and NPPB with Circulating Natriuretic Peptides and Blood Pressure

Blood pressure is a heritable trait, but no common genetic variants contributing to blood pressure in humans have been definitively established. Natriuretic peptides (NP) have blood pressure-lowering properties. Genotyping SNPs at the NPPA/NPPB locus in 14,743 individuals of European ancestry identi...
