Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Change in gene-expression of inflammatory genes in response to bradykinin B1<br /><br>receptor stimulation in human mononuclear cells in the presence or absence of<br /><br>the rs12050217 minor allele. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Secondary study parameters are to test if the inflammatory response is<br /><br>influenced by stimulation or inhibition of other components of the RAS or kinin<br /><br>system and evaluation of the plasma for the presence of inflammatory cytokines<br /><br>and RAS hormones. In addition, genetic analysis of other SNP*s in the RAS and<br /><br>kinin system in relation to the inflammatory response is also a secondary<br /><br>measurement. </p><br>
