The results revealed a cluster of proteins, including the SRC family, CAMK2B, CAMK2D, TEC, GSK3, VAV, and RAC, which were markedly upregulated in patients with hypertension compared to those with prehypertension (fold change ≥ 1.6 or ≤−1.6, area under the curve ≥ 0.8, and q-value < 0.05). Here, VAV1 is linked to Hypertension.
