Elevated blood pressure is an important risk factor for renal-, cerebro-
and cardiovascular diseases. We used an efficient discordant sib-pair
ascertainment scheme to investigate the impact of the distal end of the
long arm of human chromosome 5 (chromosomal region 5q31.1-qter) containing
genes for the alpha1B and beta2 adrenergic receptors and the dopamine
receptor type 1A on variation of systolic blood pressure in young
Caucasians. We measured eight highly polymorphic markers spanning this
positional candidate gene-rich region in 427 individuals from 55
three-generation pedigrees containing 69 discordant sibling pairs, and
calculated multipoint identity by descent (MIBD) probabilities. The results
of genetic linkage and association tests indicate that the region between
markers D5S2093 and D5S462 is significantly linked to one or more
polymorphic genes influencing interindividual variation in systolic blood
pressure levels. Since the alpha1B adrenergic receptor and dopamine
receptor type 1A genes are located close to these markers, these data
suggest that genetic variation in one or both of these G protein-coupled
receptors, which participate in the control of vascular tone, plays an
important role in influencing interindividual variation in systolic blood
pressure levels.
