摘要：Serine/threonine kinase 39 (STK39) gene has been reported to be a hypertension-susceptibility gene by a recent genome-wide association study in Western populations. To validate this finding in Chinese, we focused on five well-characterized common polymorphisms in STK39 gene to examine their potential association with hypertension in a large northeastern Han population. This is a hospital-based case-control study involving 1009 hypertensive patients and 756 normotensive controls. Data were analyzed by the Haplo.Stats and multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) softwares. The genotype and allele distributions of rs6749447, rs3754777 and rs6433027 differed significantly between patients and controls (P
