Devil and angel in the renin–angiotensin system: ACE–angiotensin II–AT(1) receptor axis vs. ACE2–angiotensin-(1–7)–Mas receptor axis

Recent studies have established a new regulatory axis in the renin–angiotensin system (RAS). In this axis, angiotensin (Ang)-(1–7) is finally produced from Ang I or Ang II by the catalytic activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Ang-(1–7) shows actions different from those of AT(1) recep...
