Angiotensin Converting Enzymes

, 2016
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is well known for its dual actions in converting inactive Ang I to active Ang II and degrade active bradykinin (BK), which play an important role in the control of blood pressure. Since the bottle neck step is the production of pressor Ang II, this was targeted pharmacologically in 1970s and successful ACE inhibitors

SOMATIC ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME IN VARICOCELE

Archives of Andrology, 2006
The ACE is found as two isozymes in the body. A somatic isozyme found in blood and several other tissues, and a testis-specific isozyme found only in developing spermatids and mature sperm. In this study, we investigated the ACE activity in left spermatic vein blood samples of infertile patients with varicocele and its correlation to spermatologic ...

Patients‐Derived Organoids Sequencing‐based FOXP4 Facilitates Radioresistance by Transcriptionally Modifying GPX4 to Regulate ferroptosis in Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FOXP4 regulates GPX4 transcription to suppress ferroptosis. In CRC patients, initial biopsies established PDO cultures alongside concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Post‐treatment MRI with mrTRG scoring stratified radioresistant/sensitive cohorts. Parallelly, 8Gy‐irradiated PDOs underwent viability‐based stratification.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Vascular Remodeling [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2007
Vascular remodeling is the result of a close interplay of changes in vascular tone and structure. In this review, the role of angiotension-converting enzyme (ACE) and the impact of ACE inhibition on vascular remodeling processes during vascular injury and restenosis, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and aneurysm formation are discussed.

Loss of Hepatic Angiotensinogen Attenuates Diastolic Dysfunction in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Increased hepatic angiotensinogen (AGT) abundance leads to cardiac diastolic dysfunction via the AngII‐independent pathway. Liver‐derived AGT is internalized by LRP2 in cardiac endothelial cells, subsequently contributing to myocardial diastolic dysfunction by suppressing microvascular angiogenesis via inhibiting the GATA2/Pim3 pathway.

Respiratory virus mRNA vaccines: mRNA Design, clinical studies, and future challenges

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Respiratory infectious diseases frequently erupt on a global scale, with RNA viruses, such as SARS‐CoV‐2, RSV, and influenza viruses, posing challenges to vaccine development due to their high mutation rates. Traditional vaccine development cycles are lengthy and struggle to keep pace with rapidly evolving viruses, whereas messenger RNA (mRNA)
