Abstract

Methods of using a genetic polymorphic variation in the human beta-1 adrenergic receptor gene as a drug response marker are presented. Determining the presence or absence of the A145G genetic variation in the human beta-1 adrenergic receptor gene is useful in predicting an individual's relative response to different antihypertensive drugs; optimizing antihypertensive treatment for an individual; selecting candidate human subjects for participation in clinical trials involving antihypertensive drugs; and, predicting the relative responses among a plurality of individuals to an antihypertensive drug.
