Association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in Salt Taste Receptor Genes With Dietary Salt Intake and Blood Pressure Among Iranian Adults Population
Abstract:Objectives
So far, few researches has examined how genetic variation in salt taste receptors affects food intake in Iranian population. Thus, in this study, we aimed to investigate associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in salt taste receptors genes with dietary salt intake and blood pressure.
Methods
This cross-sectional study was carried out among 116 randomly selected adults aged 18 years and over in Isfaha… Show more
