Expression

EC Number Organism Comment Expression
3.4.17.23 Rattus norvegicus the enzyme expression is upregulated in case of induced liver fibrosis and is further upregulated by additional administration of ACE I inhibitor peptide, pGlu-Trp-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gln-Ile-Pro-Pro, in hepatic stellate cells up

General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
3.4.17.23 physiological function ACE 2 balances the status of the renin-angiotensin system by degrading angiotensin II and generating angiotensin-(1-7). ACE2 induces overexpression of connective tissue growth factor, which is inhibited by blockade of theMas receptor with A779, overview Rattus norvegicus
