The effect of exercise and ace inhibition on angiotensin II
Within the regulation of blood pressure, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an essential role with AngII causing vasoconstriction, which increases the blood pressure. AngII is formed after ACE ar cleaved by AngI. We hypothesize that the blunting of AngII production with concomitant exercise reduces improvements in metabolic fitness by removing an
