The polymorphisms in angiotensin-converting enzyme and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 are not associated with thoracic aortic diseases and coronary heart disease

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme in Sarcoidosis

The effect of progressive aerobic continuous training on angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2 and angiotensin-converting enzyme type 2 in patients with heart failure

Background: Chronic hypertension causes structural and functional changes in the heart, ultimately leading to heart failure (HF), which further increases mortality and morbidit. HF is a complex clinical syndrome caused by various structural or functional abnormalities of the heart that impair the filling capacity of the ventricles. The findings of various trials have shown the association betwe...

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 II in the Heart and the Kidney Signaling by the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme ACE Polymorphisms Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Vascular Remodeling

Vascular remodeling is the result of a close interplay of changes in vascular tone and structure. In this review, the role of angiotension-converting enzyme (ACE) and the impact of ACE inhibition on vascular remodeling processes during vascular injury and restenosis, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and aneurysm formation are discussed. The role of ACE and angiotensin II (Ang II) in neointimal th...
