There is evidence that hereditary predisposition contributes to the development of diabetic nephropathy and hypertension. Polymorphisms in the genes for bradykinin receptors (B(1)R and B(2)R) were found to be associated with decreased risk of the development of end-stage renal disease. This study examines whether B(1)R G(-699)C and B(2)R C(181)T polymorphisms are associated with microalbuminuria or overt nephropathy, or blood pressure variation in type 2 diabetic subjects.
