Abstract：
BACKGROUND:Angiotensin Converting Enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) may cause angioedema, with an incidence of 0.1 % to 1 %, which may be life-threatening. ACEi induce angioedema by increasing the levels of bradykinin. Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ATRB), have a pharmacological profile similar to ACEi. The polymorphism of the ACE gene is based on the presence or absence of a 287-bp element on intron 16 on chromosome 17. The plasma level of ACE is related to gene polymorphism. ACE level in genotype DD is double that in genotype II. OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to investigate whether the relationship between ACE gene polymorphism and ACEi induced angioedema is present or not. METHODS:ACE gene polymorphism was investigated in patients with angioedema due to the use of ACEi or ATRB (n:32, group 1), in patients receiving ACEi or ATRB without angioedema (n:46, group 2), and healthy controls (n:96, group 3). RESULTS:ID polymorphism was the most frequent genotype in all groups, without any significant difference among the groups (p:0.868). ACE gene polymorphism was not related with the drugs used (ACEi or ATRB), localisation of angioedema, and female sex, in group 1. CONCLUSION:Our results showed that ACE gene polymorphism has no effect on ACEi or ATRB induced angioedema.
