Background
Angiotensin - converting enzyme (ACE) is a crucial enzyme in the body's renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system (RAAS). It plays a key role in regulating blood pressure and fluid balance. ACE is mainly found in the lungs, but is also present in other tissues. Functionally, ACE converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II, a powerful vasoconstrictor. Angiotensin II causes blood vessels to narrow, increasing peripheral resistance and thus raising blood pressure. Additionally, it stimulates the release of aldosterone from the adrenal glands, which promotes sodium and water reabsorption in the kidneys, further contributing to blood volume and pressure regulation. Dysregulation of ACE activity can lead to hypertension and other cardiovascular disorders, making it an important target for drugs like ACE inhibitors in treating such conditions.
