Effect of NR3C2 genetic polymorphisms on the blood pressure response to enalapril treatment

AIM: The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR; also known as NR3C2) plays important roles in the modulation of blood pressure. The effect of NR3C2 polymorphisms on antihypertensive response to enalapril was investigated.

PATIENTS & METHODS: Two hundred and seventy nine essential hypertension patients treated with enalapril were genotyped for two NR3C2 tagSNPs, rs5522 and rs2070950, by Sequenom MassArray™ technology.

RESULTS: The reductions in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were significantly greater in AA homozygotes compared with AG+GG genotype carriers for the rs5522 polymorphism (p = 0.009), and the reductions in DBP were greater in GG homozygotes compared with GC+CC genotype carriers for the rs2070950 polymorphism, with marginal significance (p = 0.065). Stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that significant predictors of DBP reduction were baseline DBP (p < 0.001), waist:hip ratio (p = 0.001) and rs5522 genotype (p = 0.003).

CONCLUSION: NR3C2 rs5522 affects blood pressure response to enalapril treatment and may serve as a useful pharmacogenomic marker of antihypertensive response to enalapril in essential hypertension patients.
