Angiotensin-converting Enzyme (ACE)

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) indirectly increases blood pressure by causing blood vessels to constrict. ACE does that by converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II, which constricts the vessels. ACE, angiotensin I and angiotensin II are part of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), which controls blood pressure by regulating the volume of fluids in the body. ACE is secreted in the lungs and kidneys by cells in the endothelium (inner layer) of blood vessels. It has two primary functions: ACE catalyses the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor in a substrate concentration-dependent manner. ACE degrades bradykinin, a potent vasodilator, and other vasoactive peptides. These two actions make ACE inhibition a goal in the treatment of conditions such as high blood pressure, heart failure, diabetic nephropathy, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Inhibition of ACE (by ACE inhibitors) results in the decreased formation of angiotensin II and decreased metabolism of bradykinin, leading to systematic dilation of the arteries and veins and a decrease in arterial blood pressure.

    AC-SDKP-NH2
    AC-SDKP-NH2 is a substrate peptide of Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). AC-SDKP-NH2 has anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic activities. AC-SDKP-NH2 directly acts on tissues and prevents or reverses them from excessive fibrosis, but fails to reduce blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). AC-SDKP-NH2 attenuates inflammation and cell differentiation, proliferation and migration, therefore reducing fibrosis in the heart, vessels and kidneys in mice model. AC-SDKP-NH2 can be used for cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension research.
