AbstractUnder classical strategy, scientists have tried first to find a physiological phenomenon specific for essential hypertension, then to identify the protein underlying the physiological abnormality, and finally to clarify the causative gene which encoded the protein. On the other hand, under the reverse genetic approach, the correlation between hypertension and genetic abnormality is identified first, and then the pathogenesis is clarified-in reverse order. Therefore, it is not extraordinary for unexpected results to be obtained in the correlation between a gene and a disease, suggesting that this approach has a possibility to be a breakthrough in the chaos of hypertension research.
