Hintergrund
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a carboxylterminal dipeptidyl exopeptidase that converts Angiotensin I to the potent vasopressive hormone, Angiotensin II. There are two isoforms of ACE, the pulmonary ACEP and the testicular ACET. ACEP is a glycoprotein expressed in vascular endothelial cells of the lung, liver, adrenal cortex, pancreas, kidney and spleen. The ACET isoform is expressed exclusively in adult testis by developing sperm cells, specifically late pachytene spermatocytes. Additionally, ACE inactivates bradykinin, a vasodepressor peptide, and is involved in blood pressure regulation and fluid/ electrolyte homeostasis. ACE2 is the first known human homolog of angiotensin- converting enzyme (ACE). Unlike ACE, which is expressed ubiquitously throughout the vasculature, ACE2 is expressed only in cardiac, renal and testicular cells.Synonyms: ACE-related carboxypeptidase, Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, Angiotensin-converting enzyme homolog
