physiological function | ACE2 is significantly increased in thapsigargin or palmitic acid-induced cultured hepatocytes. Activation of ACE2 can ameliorate ER stress, accompanied by decreased thapsigargin content, increased intracellular glycogen, and downregulated expression of hepatic lipogenic proteins and enzymes for gluconeogenesis in thapsigargin or palmitic acid-induced hepatocytes | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | ACE2 knockout mice display elevated levels of ER stress, while ACE2 overexpressing db/db mice show reduced ER stress in liver | Mus musculus |
