Interestingly, SLC38A2, a calcium transporter that shows a significant increase in both mRNA and protein and splicing factor, and the suppressor of white-apricot homolog (SFSWAP), which is increased in protein expression analysis, are implicated in systemic hypertension (Iwamoto et al., 2004; Zhang et al., 2010; de Las Fuentes et al., 2013). This evidence concerns the gene SLC38A2 and Hypertension.
