Association of angiotensin-converting enzyme with low-density lipoprotein in aortic valvular lesions and in human plasma.
BACKGROUND Recent studies have demonstrated that lesions of aortic sclerosis and stenosis share several similarities with lesions of atherosclerosis. In atherosclerosis, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is expressed by a subset of macrophages. This study was undertaken to determine whether ACE might be present in aortic sclerosis or stenosis lesions. METHODS AND RESULTS Immunohistochemistr...

متن کاملContributions of leukocyte angiotensin-converting enzyme to development of atherosclerosis.
OBJECTIVE This study determined the role of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) on the development of angiotensin I-induced atherosclerosis and the contribution of leukocyte-specific expression of this enzyme. APPROACH AND RESULTS To define the contribution of ACE-dependent activity to angiotensin II synthesis in atherosclerotic development, male low-density lipoprotein receptor(-/-) mice wer...
متن کاملSerum 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...

Following the skyrocketing spread of SARS-CoV-2 into almost all the countries over five continents, diverse clinical strategies are urgently needed to defeat its pandemic, considering that an magic-bullet antiviral vaccine or treatment is presently unavailable. WHO later proclaimed the viral outbreak as a pandemic. Despite this fast speed of the pandemic, any recommended treatment must first...
