Effect of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor and angiotensin II receptor blocker on the patients with sepsis [PDF]
Background/Aims Inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), reportedly have anti-inflammatory effects.

ACE-inhibition prevents postischemic coronary leukocyte adhesion and leukocyte-dependent reperfusion injury [PDF]
Objective: Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), retained in the microvascular bed, can contribute to postischemic myocardial reperfusion injury. Since a beneficial effect of ACE-inhibition on reperfusion injury has been reported, we investigated the ...

Aliskiren, enalapril, or aliskiren and enalapril in heart failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND Among patients with chronic heart failure, angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduce mortality and hospitalization, but the role of a renin inhibitor in such patients is unknown.

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.

Angioedema after local trauma in a patient on angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor therapy [PDF]
Angioedema is a side effect that is often associated with use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor medications. These medications result in increased levels of circulating bradykinins.
