angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors
2012More than 30 years since their discovery, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors still represent one of the most commonly prescribed medications for treating hypertension and one of the favored first-line agents, particularly in the presence of high-risk conditions, such as diabetes.

Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors
Pharmaceutisch Weekblad Scientific Edition, 1982Inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in patients suffering from renovascular hypertension results in lowering of the blood-pressure. The development of captopril, an orally active ACE inhibitor and the structure-activity relationship of captopril analogues are described.

The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2003Angiotensin converting enzyme 1, found widely throughout the animal kingdom, is an integral membrane bound protein whose active sites are directed to the extracellular spaces. Two isoforms are expressed in mammals, a single domain germinal isoform required for male fertility, and a double domain somatic isoform which has a key role in the renin ...

Glucocorticoid induction of angiotensin converting enzyme
Agents and Actions, 1986Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) converts angiotensin I (Angio I) to angiotensin II (Angio II) and inactivates bradykinin (BK). Glucocorticoids in the physiological range increase ACE in rabbit alveolar macrophages and bovine endothelial cells in culture.

Renin and angiotensin converting enzyme in elasmobranchs
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1992Renin-like activity (RLA) and angiotensin I converting enzyme-like activity (ACELA), the two key enzymes of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), were sought in the elasmobranch Scyliorhinus canicula. Renal extracts were desalted in a G-25 and eluted in a G-100 Sephadex column (calibration 15,000-70,000).

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1992The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors available today include Captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), enaloprilat (Vasotec IV), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril), benazepril (Lotensin), fosinopril (Monopril), and ramipril (Atace). These drugs are used in the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure.

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1992
SUMMARY1. The effects of angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors on the tissue ACE were assessed by quantitative in vitro autoradiography after acute and chronic administrations of the drugs.2. Following acute administration of lisinopril, perindopril or benazepril, ACE was markedly inhibited in the lung, kidney and blood vessels but not in the ...

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE), is a zinc containing metallopeptidase, best known for its role in the conversion of Ang I in the active peptide Ang II, which plays a pivotal role in the blood pressure (BP) regulation trough the Renin Angiotensin System (RAS). In the last decades RAS has been deeply studied in all its aspects and implications.

Angiotensin‐Converting Enzyme in Sarcoidosis
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1979ABSTRACT Using a spectrophotometric assay with l‐hippuryl‐l‐histidyl‐l‐leucine as substrate, s‐angio‐tensin‐converting enzyme (SACE) was determined in 85 sarcoidosis patients, 116 healthy controls and 150 patients with various non‐sarcoid diseases. The controls showed no sex or age variation and had SACE levels of 24.4±6.2 U/ml (mean ± 1 S.D.), giving ...
