摘要
Objective To characterize a novel frameshift mutation of the epithelial sodium channel(ENaC)βsubunit in a Chinese family with clinical suspicion of Liddle syndrome.And to emphasize that genetic testing is a confirmatory evidence of the diagnosis of Liddle syndrome.Methods DNA samples from the proband with early-onset,treatment-resistant hypertension and hypokalemia and 31 additional relatives were all sequenced for mutations in exon 13 of theβ-ENaC andγ-ENaC genes,using amplification by polymerase chain reaction and direct DNA sequencing.
