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.

The discovery of a new bat coronavirus in China has sparked concerns of another pandemic. The virus, HKU5-CoV-2, is similar to to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

Hypotension is not a specific side effect with ACE inhibitors; rather, it is a broadening of the physiologic action of these drugs that occurs most commonly when a patient becomes volume contracted.

Angiotensin II (AT-II)-Receptor Antagonists are Reviewed. Research focused on blocking the renin- angiotensin system (RAS) led to the discovery of angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors ...

Researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo have developed CeSPIACE, a peptide inhibitor that blocks SARS-CoV-2 from ...

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 ...

The virus is able to bind to the human angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE2), the same receptor used by the Sars-CoV-2 virus, which causes Covid-19, to infect cells.

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

This medication is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, prescribed for high blood pressure. This medication is an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor), prescribed ...
