General Information Comment Organism
physiological function exogenous ACE2 attenuates bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis by reversing the reduction of local ACE2 and by suppressing the elevation of angiotensinogen. ACE2 decreases the apoptosis index and leukocyte common antigen levels and ameliorates the dynamic change in surfactant-associated protein SP-A level. Reductions of TGF-beta1 and alpha-SMA are also found in ACE2-treated mice Mus musculus
