Objective To investigate the effect of the polymorphism of angiotensin-converting enzyme
(ACE) gene D/I on the plasma angiotensin II levels and the risk of chronic heart failure …

Objective The deletion (D) allele of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has
been proposed as a genetic marker of the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). In this study …

Introduction: To explore whether the insertion (I) and deletion (D) polymorphism of
angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) confers susceptibility to vasculitis. Materials and …

Introduction: The ACE I/D polymorphism was mostly investigated in association with intima-
media thickness, rarely with severe atherosclerotic phenotype. Materials and methods: We …

Discrepancies in angiotensin-1 converting enzyme (ACE) allele genetic susceptibility with
disease etiology have been attributed to ethnic differences. We investigated ACE gene …

Background: Several polymorphisms in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and
ACE2 genes are associated with the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) …

Emerging evidence has shown that angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) plays pivotal
roles not only in the regulation of cardiovascular homeostasis but also in the process of …

Numerous factors have been reported to influence the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The
angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) gene is a candidate gene for atherosclerotic-related …

Background The development of left ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction
is a predictor of heart failure and mortality. The genetic influence on cardiac remodeling in …

Background Many studies have investigated the association between the angiotensin-
converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and risk of ischemic …
