    ABSTRACT: The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a crucial regulator of vascular resistance and blood volume in the body. This study aimed to examine the genetic predisposition of the plasma renin concentration influencing future hypertension incidence. Based on the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Cohort dataset, 5211 normotensive individuals at enrollment were observed over 12 years, categorized into the low-renin and high-renin groups. We conducted genome-wide association studies for the total, low-renin, and high-renin groups. Among the significant SNPs, the lead SNPs of each locus were focused on for further interpretation. The effect of genotypes was determined by logistic regression analysis between controls and new-onset hypertension, after adjusting for potential confounding variable
