Findings of previous studies demonstrated that rs6007897 (C→T, Ala2268Thr) of the cadherin, epidermal growth factor (EGF) laminin A G-type repeats (LAG) seven-pass G-type receptor 1 gene ( CELSR1 ) and rs9846911 (A→G) at chromosome 3q28 were significantly associated with ischemic stroke and chronic kidney disease, respectively. Given that hypertension is a risk factor for both ischemic stroke and chronic kidney disease, it was hypothesized that the association of rs6007897 with ischemic stroke or of rs9846911 with chronic kidney disease might be attributable, at least in part, to their effects on genetic susceptibility to hypertension. The purpose of the present study was to examine a possible association of rs6007897 of CELSR1 or rs9846911 at 3q28 with hypertension in community-dwelling individuals. Study subjects comprised 5,959 community-dwelling individuals (1,670 subjects with hypertension and 4,289 controls) who were recruited to a population-based cohort study. Comparisons of allele frequencies by the Chi-square test revealed that rs6007897 of CELSR1 (P=0.0280) and rs9846911 at 3q28 (P=0.0171) were significantly associated with the prevalence of hypertension. Multivariate logistic regression analysis with adjustment for age, gender, body mass index (BMI), smoking status, the serum concentration of creatinine and the prevalence of dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus revealed that rs6007897 (P=0.0308; recessive model; odds ratio, 1.56) and rs9846911 (P=0.0353; dominant model; odds ratio, 1.22) were significantly associated with hypertension with the T allele rs6007897 and the G allele rs984691 representing risk factors for this condition. CELSR1 and 3q28 may thus be susceptibility loci for hypertension.
