1. Inhibition of the Angiotensin I Converting Enzyme (ACE) and proteolysis of non-fat probiotic yogurt
Resumo O iogurte é uma importante fonte de muitos peptídeos biologicamente ativos que podem apresentar benefícios específicos à saúde. A maioria dos peptídeos bioativos produzidos durante a produção de iogurte está relacionada aos peptídeos inibidores da enzima conversora da angiotensina (ECA-I). O presente estudo avaliou a proteólise e as ativid

2. Behavioral effects of Bj-PRO-7a, a proline-rich oligopeptide from Bothrops jararaca venom
The heptapeptide Bj-PRO-7a, isolated and identified from Bothrops jararaca (Bj) venom, produces antihypertensive and other cardiovascular effects that are independent on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition, possibly relying on cholinergic muscarinic receptors subtype 1 (M1R). However, whether Bj-PRO-7a acts upon the central nervous system and modifies b

3. Polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin system are not associated with overweight and obesity in a general adult population
ABSTRACT Objective The increased prevalence of obesity and associated comorbidities, such as cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, has gained attention worldwide, and the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been pointed out as a possible link. Thus, the present study aimed to verify the possible association between angiotensinogen (AGT) or angiotensin-conv

4. The protective arm of the renin -angiotensin system may counteract the intense inflammatory process in fetuses with posterior urethral valves
Resumo Objetivo: A válvula de uretra posterior é a obstrução do trato urinário inferior mais comum em crianças do sexo masculino. Uma alta porcentagem de pacientes com válvula de uretra posterior evolui para doença renal em estágio final. Estudos anteriores mostraram que citocinas, quimiocinas e componentes do sistema renina-angiotensina contribuem

5. Purification and characterization of angiotensin converting enzyme-inhibitory derived from crocodile blood hydrolysates
Abstract Various enzyme types were used to hydrolyze crocodile blood peptides showing an Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity. Alcalase hydrolysates (ALH) and Protease G6 hydrolysates (PG6H) showed the highest degree of hydrolysis (P<0.05). However, PG6H was significantly observed to have an effective ACE-inhibitory (ACE-I) activity (94.

6. Proteome of fraction from Tityus serrulatus venom reveals new enzymes and toxins
Abstract Background: Tityus serrulatus venom (Ts venom) is a complex mixture of several compounds with biotechnological and therapeutical potentials, which highlights the importance of the identification and characterization of these components. Although a considerable number of studies have been dedicated to the characterization of this complex cocktail, t

7. Influence of ACE Polymorphism on Echocardiographic Data of Patients with Heart Failure
Abstract Background: Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) polymorphism has been associated with different clinical and echocardiographic parameters in patients with heart failure (HF). However, no studies have been investigated such association with HF caused by Chagas disease. Objectives: To perform a genetic study to evaluate the frequency of ACE polymorp

9. Apolipoprotein B and angiotensin-converting enzyme polymorphisms and aerobic interval training: randomized controlled trial in coronary artery disease patients
Physical training has been strongly recommended as a non-pharmacological treatment for coronary artery disease (CAD). Genetic polymorphisms have been studied to understand the biological variability in response to exercise among individuals. This study aimed to verify the possible influence of apolipoprotein B (ApoB: rs1042031 and rs693) and angiotensin-conv

10. Is serum angiotensin converting enzyme level a useful non-invasive marker for liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C?
Summary Objective: Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) continues to be a critical problem. The liver fibrosis score is the most valuable tool in determining treatment and prognosis. Liver biopsy is still considered a gold method but, due to unmet needs, new non-invasive markers are required. The aim of this study was to investigate any possible relationship between s

11. Isolation and biochemical characterization of bradykinin-potentiating peptides from Bitis gabonica rhinoceros
Abstract Background: Venoms represent a still underexplored reservoir of bioactive components that might mitigate or cure diseases in conditions in which conventional therapy is ineffective. The bradykinin-potentiating peptides (BPPs) comprise a class of angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. The BPPs usually consist of oligopeptides with 5 to 13

12. The relationship between of ACE I/D and the MTHFR C677T polymorphisms in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus in a population of Brazilian obese patients
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the frequencies of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene C677T polymorphisms in obese patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Subjects and methods These polymorphisms were analyzed by polymerase chain reac
