Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)
Clinica Chimica Acta, 2022Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) was isolated as a 'hypertensinconverting enzyme'. There have been considerable advances in understanding the metabolic role of ACE in the body. This review attempts to highlight the role of ACE enzyme in the physiological and pathological processes occurring in the organs in which it is localized.The literature was ...

[Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors].
Recenti progressi in medicina, 1991The introduction of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure is probably the most important advance in cardiovascular pharmacotherapy in the last few decades. Although the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in cardiovascular diseases had been investigated extensively for more than 70 yr,

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
American Journal of Hypertension, 1990This review focuses on the use of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in hypertensive diseases. Specifically discussed are: proposed mechanisms of action, the pharmacology of the commercially available ACE inhibitors (captopril, enalapril, and lisinopril), their renal effects, and their safety and efficacy.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
Medical Clinics of North America, 1988There is convincing evidence that ACE inhibitors, alone or in combination with a diuretic, effectively lower blood pressure in patients with all grades of essential or renovascular hypertension and that they are of particular benefit as adjunctive therapy in patients with congestive heart failure.

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.

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.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors
2001Publisher Summary Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors were first studied clinically in the 1970s. ACE inhibitors were discovered by taking advantage of previous basic research on the physiology of sodium, potassium, and water homeostasis and blood pressure regulation, in a reciprocal way ACE have also advanced research in this field, and ...

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor Angioedema
Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal, 2020Angioedema from angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) is a potential, emergent, and frightening problem that presents to the emergency department. This article focuses on angioedema caused by using ACEIs. The presentation, pathology, diagnostic testing, treatment, and patient education of angioedema are explored.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
Medical Clinics of North America, 1987In summary, ACE inhibitors are effective in reducing blood pressure as initial therapy in some hypertensive patients and in combination with diuretics and other agents in virtually all hypertensives. ACE inhibitors are uniquely advantageous because of their favorable hemodynamic effects, the lack of adverse metabolic effects, and their ability to ...
