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.

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 ...

Dose response of ACE inhibitors: implications of the SECURE trial
The choice of the appropriate dosage of ACE inhibitor in clinical practice is an important one. The available evidence suggests that in chronic heart failure as well as in chronic coronary artery disease, high doses of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)

Effect of angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibition on cardiovascular adaptation to exercise training
Angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) activity may be one determinant of adaptability to exercise training, but well‐controlled studies in humans without confounding conditions are lacking.

Therapeutic approaches to slowing the progression of diabetic nephropathy – is less best?
Objective: Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are known to reduce proteinuria and have been the first-line agents in the management of diabetic nephropathy for the past 20 years.
