We present a general dynamical theory of a membrane coupled to an actin cortex containing polymerizing filaments with active stresses and currents, and demonstrate that active membrane dynamics [Phys.

ACE2 ACTIVATION PROMOTES ANTITHROMBOTIC ACTIVITY
Hyperactivity of the axis ACE/AngII/AT1R of the renin‐angiotensin system is associated with occurrence of acute thrombotic event. Recently a novel concept of a counterrugulatory axis, ACE2/Ang‐(1‐7)/Mas, has emerged. We hypothesized that ACE2 would be protective against thrombosis.
