Potential angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors from Iranian traditional plants described by Avicenna’s Canon of Medicine [PDF]

Avicenna Journal of Phytomedicine, 2019
Objective: Hypertension is an important cause of cardiovascular disorders. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important role in hypertension; therefore, inhibition of ACE in treatment of chronically elevated blood pressure is an important ...

Study of angiotensin-converting enzyme insertion/deletion polymorphism, enzyme activity and oxidized low density lipoprotein in Western Iranians with atherosclerosis: a case-control study

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background It has been indicated that Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Insertion/Deletion (ACE I/D) polymorphism (rs4646994) could be regarded as a genetic factor that raises the risk of CAD through its impact on the activity of Angiotensin-Converting ...

Fecal ACE and ACE2 Activities Reflect Intestinal Shedding and Microbiota Modulation of Renin–Angiotensin System

Biology
Angiotensin-converting enzymes (ACE and ACE2) are key components of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) and are present in the gastrointestinal tract and intestinal content, preserving their catalytic activity, and may interact with the gut ...
