In a study published in the journal, Cell, Jing Chen, PhD, and colleagues at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Wuhan, China, ...

The study, published in the journal Cell Death & Disease, reveals important progress in unraveling how the enzyme, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), contributes to healthy placental and fetal ...

The discovery of a new bat coronavirus in China has sparked concerns of another pandemic. The virus, HKU5-CoV-2, is similar ...

Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors are a class of oral medications that act primarily through blockade of the angiotensin converting enzyme. This enzyme converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II.

Different versions of a gene called ACE2 affect how well the placenta grows during pregnancy, a laboratory study finds.

Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers are commonly used to treat hypertension and/or a range of progressive end-organ diseases. The success of each of these ...

The virus can bind to the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor—the same receptor used by SARS-CoV-2 to ...

They can also allow for other drugs to work better. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. Your doctor may prescribe an ACE inhibitor to control your blood pressure, lower protein in your ...

In patients with acute heart failure, it is unclear how body mass index affects clinical outcomes following acute myocardial infarction.

What was needed was a simple quantitative assay for this enzyme. With this in mind, I developed a spectrophotometric assay to purify rabbit lung ACE (ref. 5) and to study its enzymatic properties ...
