Identification of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) up-regulating peptides from pea protein hydrolysate
Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) degrades vasoconstricting angiotensin II (Ang II) into angiotensin (1–7), exerting protective effects in cardiovascular system; thus, ACE2 is considered as a novel target for cardiovascular therapy. The objectives of this study were to identify ACE2 up-regulati...
