    Abstract:
    We studied the association between four novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of V1aR gene and essential hypertension in 620 Japanese subjects (365 hypertensives and 255 healthy). A significant association was found between one of the genotypes and alleles at SNP -6951 and hypertension in a subsample of nonobese individuals. This association demonstrated an independent risk for nonobese hypertension.
