Angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D polymorphism and preeclampsia risk: Evidence of small-study bias [PDF]
Background Inappropriate activation of the renin-angiotensin system may play a part in the development of preeclampsia. An insertion/deletion polymorphism within the angiotensin-I converting enzyme gene (ACE-I/D) has shown to be reliably associated with ...

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene family of Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
Background Members of the M2 family of peptidases, related to mammalian angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), play important roles in regulating a number of physiological processes.

A new angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor from Peperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth
Objective: To isolate, identify, and evaluate a new angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor from Peperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth herbs. Methods: A dried sample of Peperomia pellucida herb was successively macerated with n-hexane and ethyl acetate.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme insertion/deletion polymorphism does not influence the restenosis rate after coronary stent implantation [PDF]
Background. Experimental studies have shown an activation of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) system as a response to endothelial injury. Recent publications have elucidated the hypothesis that the ACE gene polymorphism may influence the level of ...

Serum angiotensin converting enzyme in pemphigus vulgaris
Background: Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune blistering skin disease with unknown etiology. Drugs such as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors may contribute in the pathogenesis of pemphigus.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Heart Failure
Pharmacotherapy is the cornerstone treatment for patients with heart failure (HF) that uses drugs targeting the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs ...

Signaling by the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme [PDF]
Inhibition of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) protects against the progression of several cardiovascular diseases. Because of its dual role in regulating angiotensin II and bradykinin levels, the positive clinical effects of ACE inhibitors were thought to be the consequence of concomitant reductions in the production of angiotensin II and the ...

DNA methylation analysis of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene in major depression. [PDF]
The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) has been repeatedly discussed as susceptibility factor for major depression (MD) and the bi-directional relation between MD and cardiovascular disorders (CVD).
