Abstract: To investigate differences in the angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) genotype between patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM) and hypertensive patients with LVH(HH) in China, polymerase chain reaction technique was used to study the ACE gene insertion/deletion polymorphism in 40 HCM patients, 50 HH patients and 61 random controls. The results suggested that the frequencies of D allele were higher in the HCM group (0.513) than in the C gourp (0.344, P<0.05) and the HH group (0.360, P< 0.05), and that the II genotype were lower in the HCM group (0.300) than in the C group (0.508, P< 0.05). This research indicated that ACE D allele was more common in patients with HCM compared with patients with HH.
