Small molecule angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors: A medicinal chemistry perspective
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), a zinc metalloprotein, is a central component of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS). It degrades bradykinin and other vasoactive peptides.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors [PDF]
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 ...
