Our cross-sectional study shows that the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AGTR2) 3123A allele is an important determinant of the blood pressure response to dietary salt intake in middle-aged Japanese men. Although future research is required to elucidate for the association between AGTR2 genotype and the blood pressure response to dietary salt intake in prospective studies and for the mechanisms of the AGTR2 gene and salt sensitivity, it can be said that the AGTR2 genotype is a potentially useful genetic marker of salt sensitivity.
