Definition that contains angiotensin i
- ace proteolytic enzyme that converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II
- captopril a drug (trade name Capoten) that blocks the formation of angiotensin in the kidneys resulting in vasodilation; used in the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure
- angiotensin converting enzyme proteolytic enzyme that converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II
- angiotensin-converting enzyme proteolytic enzyme that converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II
- diovan an angiotensin II inhibitor that is used to treat high blood pressure
- vasotec an ACE inhibitor (trade name Vasotec) that blocks the formation of angiotensin in the kidney and so results in vasodilation; administered after heart attacks
- angiotensin i a physiologically inactive form of angiotensin that is the precursor to angiotensin II
- angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor an antihypertensive drug that blocks the formation of angiotensin II in the kidney, leading to relaxation of the arteries; promotes the excretion of salt and water by inhibiting the activity of the angiotensin converting enzyme; also used to treat congestive heart failure
- enalapril an ACE inhibitor (trade name Vasotec) that blocks the formation of angiotensin in the kidney and so results in vasodilation; administered after heart attacks
- angiotensin ii a potent vasopressor agent formed from angiotensin I
