Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Genetic Polymorphism
Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2014 Sir Editor, The recent report on "angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) genetic polymorphism." is very interesting. Albuquerque et al.1 concluded that "the DD genotype was independently associated with worse echocardiographic outcome, while the DI genotype, with best echocardiographic profile." In fact, the polymorphism of ACE is different in ...

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors [PDF]
Circulation, 1998 Abstract—ACE inhibitors have achieved widespread usage in the treatment of cardiovascular and renal disease. ACE inhibitors alter the balance between the vasoconstrictive, salt-retentive, and hypertrophic properties of angiotensin II (Ang II) and the vasodilatory and natriuretic properties of bradykinin and alter the metabolism of a number of other ...
