Abstract

Comparison of the Genetic Profile of rs4646994 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism of the ACE Gene in the Elite Male Weightlifters and Non-athletes

Highlights

  • The ACE gene encodes the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which is characterized by the presence of allele I or the absence of allele D of a 287-bp fragment

  • This study aimed to compare the genetic profile of rs4646994 single nucleotide polymorphism of the ACE gene in the elite male weightlifters and nonathletes

  • Data analysis was performed using independent t-test, chi-square, and logistic regression in SPSS software. (Ethic code: 7993) Findings: The results showed that the prevalence of D allele in elite weightlifters and non-athletes was significantly higher than allele I in their groups (P
