In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* pre-print server, researchers investigated allosteric binders of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) that significantly inhibit severe acute respiratory ...

Angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor blockers are used commonly in clinical practice to treat hypertension and decrease cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.

A recent study posted to the Research Square* preprint server discovered that near relatives of the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) utilize angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 ...

The preservation of functional independence in elderly people depends on the ability to maintain muscle mass, strength and balance. Sarcopenia refers to the age-related declines in muscle mass and ...

The genes in the renin–angiotensin system are important physiologic candidates in studies of the genetic susceptibility to hypertension. Limited information has been available in most studies on the ...

Few studies have directly compared the renoprotective effects of angiotensin II–receptor blockers and angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in persons with type 2 diabetes. In this ...

Study Objectives: To assess the clinical relevance of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme-A reductase inhibitors (statins) in the context of ...

Background The risks associated with using an angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and an angiotensin-receptor blocker together are unclear. This study was designed to determine the safety of ...
