Methods Multiplex polymerase chain reaction amplification was used to evaluate the ACE gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism. High-resolution B-mode ultrasound examinations were performed to detect parameters of carotid artery remodeling. Results Intima-media thickness (IMT) was significantly different among the DD, ID and II genotypes of ACE (DD>ID>II, P <0.05). Carotid internal diameter,distensibility and stiffness were similar among the DD,ID and II genotypes of ACE ( P >0.05) in hypertensive subjects. The frequency of the DD gene and D allele of ACE were higher in patients with thickening carotid than in patients with normal carotid (70.4% vs 24.1%,and 79.5% vs 40.5%,respectively, P <0.001). In multiple stepwise regression analysis,independent risk factors for increased carotid IMT in hypertensive subjects were ACE genotypes ( P <0.001),age ( P <0.001) and carotid internal diameter ( P =0.032). Moreover,triglycerides and total cholesterol were higher in patients with the DD genotype than in those with the II genotype ( P <0.05). Conclusions The I/D polymorphism of the ACE gene was related to IMT,but not to internal diameter,distensibility and stiffness of the carotid in Chinese hypertensive subjects. ACE gene polymorphism was a main risk factor for increased carotid IMT. These results may imply that there is a link between lipid metabolism and ACE genotype polymorphism in Chinese hypertensive subjects.展开更多
