The α2CDel322-325 adrenergic receptor polymorphism is not associated with heart failure due to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy in black Africans

BACKGROUND: A four-amino acid deletion was identified within the α(2C)-adrenergic receptor (α(2C)Del322-325) that, when homozygous, increases the risk of heart failure in African-Americans nearly six-fold. We hypothesised that homozygosity for the α(2C)Del322-325 polymorphism may be a risk factor fo...
