Isoflavone genistein inhibits the angiotensin-converting enzyme and alters the vascular responses to angiotensin I and bradykinin
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009)
Genistein produces antihypertensive and beneficial cardiovascular effects, although the mechanisms for these effects are not known. We examined whether genistein inhibits the in vivo responses to angiotensin I or enhances ...
Renin-angiotensin system blockers and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, which is responsible for the current coronavirus
disease 2019 pandemic, uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 as a gateway into host cells. In this
review, we summarize the ...
Dietary Potassium Downregulates Angiotensin-I Converting Enzyme, Renin, and Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2
(2020-06-18)
Background: The importance of dietary potassium in health and disease has been underestimated compared with that placed on dietary sodium. Larger effort has been made on reduction of sodium intake and less on the adequate ...
Angiotensin I-converting enzyme insertion/delection polymorphism and adrenergic response to exercise in hypertensive patients
(International Medical Science for Experimental and Clinical Research, 2002)
The insertion/delection ACE polymorphism (ACE I/D) regulates different levels of circulating and tissue ACE activities, which may induce diverse adrenergic responses to physiological stimuli. The aim of this study was ...
Alternative pathways for angiotensin II generation in the cardiovascular system
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2011)
The classical renin-angiotensin system (RAS) consists of enzymes and peptides that regulate blood pressure and electrolyte and fluid homeostasis. Angiotensin II (Ang II) is one of the most important and extensively studied ...
PINDOLOL Df,CREASES PLASMA ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME ACTIVITY IN YOUNG SPONTANEOUSLY HYPERTTNSIVE RATS
(European Journal ol Pharmocolog/,, 2011)
Effect of hypertension on angiotensin-(1-7) levels in rats with different angiotensin-I converting enzyme polymorphism
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2006)
To determine circulating angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1,7)] levels in rats with different angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) genotypes and to evaluate the effect of hypertension on levels of this heptapeptide, plasma levels ...
Increased aortic NADPH oxidase activity in rats with genetically high angiotensin-converting enzyme levels
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2005-12)
In humans and rats, angiotensin I-converting enzyme activity is significantly determined by a gene polymorphism. Homozygous Brown Norway rats have higher plasma angiotensin I-converting enzyme activity and circulating ...
Prevalence of the angiotensin I converting enzyme insertion/deletion polymorphism, plasma angiotensin converting enzyme activity, and left ventricular mass in a normotensive Chilean population
(1999)
The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of the different alleles of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and associated plasma ACE activity, as well as cardiac ...
Prevalence of the angiotensin I converting enzyme insertion deletion polymorphism, plasma angiotensin converting enzyme activity, and left ventricular mass in a normotensive Chilean population
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 1999)
The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of the different alleles of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and associated plasma ACE activity, as well as cardiac ...
