Example Sentences:

  • (2) At present, ACE inhibitors are preferred because they are usually better tolerated than conventional vasodilators and are clinically more effective.

  • (4) In 33 patients with heart failure (NYHA II-III), the 24-h blood pressure rhythm was examined before and after the titration period of two ACE inhibitors.
  • (5) In contrast to the intact endothelial monolayers, in homogenates additional kininase activity was found which was not affected by either ACE and NEP inhibitors nor by amastatin and MGTA.
  • (6) We investigated the effects of local angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition by captopril on the autoregulatory efficiency of glomerular blood flow (GBF).
  • (7) Thus ACE-inhibitors are to be considered for all patients requiring medical therapy for congestive heart failure.
  • (8) These data indicate that ACE inhibitors are able to unmask a release of bradykinin from cultured human endothelial cells.
  • (9) However, neither before nor during lisinopril therapy did any changes in urinary protein loss occur during the infusions of Ang II, despite the fact that Ang II reversed the long-term systemic and renal hemodynamic changes induced by the ACE inhibitor.
  • (10) The mechanisms underlying the positive effects of ACE inhibition and beta-adrenergic blockade are largely unknown, but hemodynamic factors (vasodilation) may contribute by improving the access of glucose and insulin to skeletal muscle.
  • (11) The choice of antihypertensive drugs in patients with single therapy or combined therapy in the young was beta blockers in 49.7%, Ca blockers in 39.4%, diuretics in 30.7% and ACE inhibitors in 17.8%, and those in the elderly were Ca blockers in 46.1%, diuretics in 44.2%, beta blockers in 33.8%, and ACE inhibitors in 16.4%.
  • (12) The effects of the neutral metalloendopeptidase (NEP) inhibitor, thiorphan, and the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, captopril, on airway responses to SP5-11 were examined in order to test the hypothesis that differences in degradation of SP and SP5-11 contribute to the difference in airway responsiveness to the two peptides.
  • (13) In the case of somatic ACE, the second equivalent of inhibitor binds to a second zinc-containing site as evidenced by the ability of a moderate excess of inhibitor to protect both zinc ions against dissociation.
  • (14) ACE inhibition reduces hyperfiltration and is capable of blocking the AA-induced rise in GFR in these patients.
  • (15) Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is a circulating dipeptidase which has a broad specificity and is known to metabolise a range of circulating peptides.
