Genetic screening of SCNN1B and SCNN1G genes in early-onset hypertensive patients helps to identify Liddle syndrome

Background: Liddle syndrome is an autosomal dominant form of monogenic hypertension. Phenotypic variability makes it difficult to identify patients with Liddle syndrome, resulting in misdiagnosis and severe complications at early age. Objectives: To identify mutation in SCNN1B and SCNN1G genes in an...
