basically ACE2 is a regulator that converts between angiotensin II <--> angiotensin 1,7 these have opposite effects , angiotensin II is a vaso-constrictor, thus increases blood pressure. angoitensin 1,7 is a vaso-dialator, thus decreases blood pressure. so there is an equilibrium state of the two established by ACE2. this is something that ACE inhibitors or ARB blockers dont directly influence. |
