Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors and Antioxidant Peptides Release During Ripening of Mexican Cotija Hard Cheese

Cotija cheese is an artisanal Mexican cheese produced with raw cow ́s milk. Our objective was to measure the antioxidant and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of the peptides released during its ripening. For that, Cotija cheeses were ripened 6 months in a chamber at 25 oC without humidity control. Weekly samples were taken to determine acid soluble nitrogen (ASN), non-pr...

Serum Angiotensin Converting Enzyme in Patients with Psoriasis

Background: Controversial data concerning the elevation of serum angiotensin-converting enzyme in psoriasis are reported in the literature. In order to verify whether this abnormality exists in Iranian patients, we performed this study. Method: Serum angiotensin-converting enzyme level was measured in 40 psoriatics. According to clinical forms of psoriasis, patients were further divided into th...

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Activity in Alopecia Areata

Background. Alopecia areata (AA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the hair follicle. The exact pathogenesis of AA remains unknown, although recent studies support a T-cell mediated autoimmune process. On the other hand, some studies have proposed that the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) may play a role in autoimmunity. Therefore, we assessed serum activity of angiotensin convert...
