ACE2-Ig and RBD-Ig inhibits in vitro SARS-CoV-2 infection.
(A) ACE2 enzymatic activity assay. Recombinant human ACE2 and ACE2-Ig were incubated with and without an ACE2 inhibitor, then MCA based peptide substrate was added and plate was immediately inserted in the fluorescent plate reader ...

ACE2 alterations in kidney disease [PDF]
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a monocarboxypeptidase that degrades angiotensin (Ang) II to Ang-(1-7). ACE2 is highly expressed within the kidneys, it is largely localized in tubular epithelial cells and less prominently in glomerular epithelial cells and in the renal vasculature. ACE2 activity has been shown to be altered in diabetic kidney

Evaluation of COVID-19 based on ACE2 expression in normal and cancer patients
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is now a serious public health problem. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) recognized as the receptor of SARS-CoV is also necessary for SARS-CoV-2.

Resveratrol supplementation reduces ACE2 expression in human adipose tissue
Angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) is the cell-surface receptor enabling cellular entry of SARS-CoV-2. ACE2 is highly expressed in adipose tissue (AT), rendering AT a potential SARS-CoV-2 reservoir contributing to massive viral spread in COVID-19 ...

Inhibition of ACE2‐Spike Interaction by an ACE2 Binder Suppresses SARS‐CoV‐2 Entry [PDF]
AbstractThe emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 variants is a significant concern in developing effective therapeutics and vaccines in the middle of the ongoing COVID‐19 pandemic. Here, we have identified a novel small molecule that inhibited the interactions between SARS‐CoV‐2 spike RBDs and ACE2 by modulating ACE2 without impairing its enzymatic activity ...
