Gender-Specific Association Between FGFR4 Gly388Arg Gene Variants and Hypertension

Variations in fibroblast growth factor (FGF) levels have been associated with alterations in blood pressure. FGFs mediate their function through binding to their FGF receptor (FGFR). The FGFR4 Gly388Arg polymorphism is associated with cancer and cardiovascular diseases, but its association with hypertension is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the association between the FGFR4 Gly388Arg polymorphism and hypertension
