Sodium lithium countertransport (SLC) is an intermediate phenotype of essential hypertension. The aim of this study was to identify candidate genes for SLC by a strategy of combining gene expression profiling and linkage analysis, and to examine the association between the candidate gene and SLC as well as hypertension.
