Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibition Modifies Angiotensin but Not Kinin Peptide Levels in Human Atrial Tissue

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) converts angiotensin I (Ang I) to angiotensin II (Ang II) and metabolizes bradykinin and kallidin peptides. Decreased Ang II levels and increased kinin peptide levels are implicated in the mediation of the therapeutic effects of ACE inhibition. However, alternativ...
