The Potential of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) in SARS-CoV-2 Management: DHA Reduces ACE2 Levels in Endothelial Cells
OBJECTIVES: Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a transmembrane protein located on the surface of endothelial cells that promotes vasodilation by promoting the hydrolysis of angiotensin II. However, ACE2 also serves as the cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2. Infection by SARS-CoV-2 can promote e...
