Understanding Angiotensin Converting Enzyme

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is an enzyme produced primarily by the liver and kidneys and a few other organs helps maintain the renin-angiotensin system (RAAS) which is important for regulating blood pressure and fluid balance. ACE helps in converting inactive angiotensin I enzyme to active angiotensin II enzyme (a potent vasoconstrictor).

The Angiotensin Converting Enzyme test is recommended when there is suspicion of sarcoidosis, a condition characterized by the growth of a tiny collection of inflammatory...
