“…Other studies support the thesis that drug treatment with ACE inhibitors 18 or with beta-blockers 12 has a more positive influence on the echocardiographic parameters of DD genotype patients. The Russian study 18 assessing patients with ischemic heart failure has reported greater improvement in ejection fraction and systolic and diastolic diameters in the DD genotype patients who started treatment with perindopril.…”

“…12 Nagashima et al 13 have shown, in patients with old anteroseptal infarction, the higher influence of DD and DI genotypes on left ventricular remodeling as compared with that of II genotype patients. In addition, He et al 14 have reported that the I/D ACEGP can have an important role in late ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction.…”

“…Cuoco et al showed in a population of heart failure patients (90% receiving ACE inhibitors) that carriers of the D allele had significantly improved LVEF compared to wild-type patients after a mean follow-up of ~39 months. 66 In contrast, in a population of patients with left ventricular hypertrophy and hypertension receiving ACE inhibitors, patients with the D/D genotype had less improvement in hypertrophy. 67 In a third study, the presence of the D allele had no impact on mortality in diastolic heart failure patients who received ACE inhibitors.…”

“…The deletion results in significantly higher ACE levels [38]; therefore it was postulated that HF patients possessing the deletion would require a higher dose of ACE inhibitor to achieve the same inhibition. Most of the clinical pharmacogenetic studies are consistent with the functional effects, with respect to mean arterial pressure [39], aldosterone escape [40], serum ACE activity [41], and survival [42], but the association with LVEF is less clear [43,44]. …”
