Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 is also involved in blood pressure regulation. There are several single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 genome. As the occurrence of clinical symptoms and response to different treatments in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 are different, it seems that single-nucleotide polymorphisms can play a role in these differences. This receptor became important during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic because the coronavirus can enter host cells via this receptor. In this study, we aimed to discover the correlation between\n                      <jats:italic>ACE2<\/jats:italic>\n                      gene polymorphism, hypertension, and anti\u2013coronavirus disease 2019 drug usage in patients with coronavirus disease 2019.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We performed a cross-sectional study, and two polymorphisms, rs1978124 and rs2158083, were analyzed in 75 patients with essential hypertension and coronavirus disease 2019.
