High blood pressure (HBP), obesity, smoking and type II diabetes(DBT) are cardiovascular risk factors (CRFs) in which genetic susceptibilityplays an important role.Transcription factor early B-cell factor 1 (EBF1) is expressed in adipocytesand olfactory neuroepithelium, and participates in immunesystem development, adipogenesis and insulin resistance.
