COVID-19 has markedly varied clinical presentations, with the majority of patients being asymptomatic or having mild symptoms. However, severe acute respiratory disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 is common and associated with ...

Angiotensin-converting enzymes 1 (ACE1) and 2 (ACE2) are key enzymes of the renin-angiotensin system, which act antagonistically to regulate the levels of angiotensin II (Ang II) and Ang-(1-7). Considerable data show that ...

Objectives: We tested whether angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and phosphorylation of Ser(1270) are involved in shear-stress (SS)-induced downregulation of the enzyme. Methods and Results: Western blotting analysis ...

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the human receptor that interacts with the Spike protein of coronaviruses, including the one that produced the 2020 coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). Thus, ACE2 is a potential target ...

Diabetic nephropathy is a complication of diabetes and one of the main causes of end-stage renal disease. A possible causal link between renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) and diabetes is widely recognized but the ...

COVID-19 is becoming a leading cause of mortality throughout the world, and few effective therapies are currently available. Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is essential to COVID-19 pathogenesis, as the binding ...

P>1. Clinical and experimental evidence highlights the importance of the renin-angiotensin system in renovascular hypertension. Furthermore, genetic factors affecting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) could influence the ...

Financial Analysis of several cases proposed by the bank BNP Paribas as part of their semestral competition, Ace Manger. BNP Paribas is the first one in the euro zone and the sixth bank worldwide. For the development of ...

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is responsible for coronavirus disease (COVID-19), potentially have severe kidney adverse effects. This organ expressed angiotensin-converting enzyme ...
