Onset of experimental severe cardiac fibrosis is mediated by overexpression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 [PDF]
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) 2 is a recently identified homologue of ACE. There is great interest in the therapeutic benefit for ACE2 overexpression in the heart.

ACE as a mechanosensor to shear stress influences the control of its own regulation via phosphorylation of cytoplasmic Ser(1270). [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: We tested whether angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and phosphorylation of Ser(1270) are involved in shear-stress (SS)-induced downregulation of the enzyme.

Mitigation of Radiation Induced Pulmonary Vascular Injury by Delayed Treatment with Captopril [PDF]
Background and Objective: A single dose of 10 Gy radiation to the thorax of rats results in decreased total lung angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity, pulmonary artery distensibility and distal vascular density while increasing pulmonary ...

Captopril-Associated Cough Is Not due to Increased Airway Responsiveness
BACKGROUND: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors commonly cause cough. There is controversy as to whether preexisting airway hyperresponsivencss predisposes patients to ACE inhibitor-induced cough and whether ACE inhibitor therapy can cause ...

ACE Inhibitors and Chronotherapy
Chronotherapy can improve the effectiveness and reduce the adverse reactions of drugs and actually is used for several conditions including cardiovascular diseases. Although angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are available for the therapy of patients with hypertension and/or heart failure, these agents have some characteristic adverse ...
