artery | non-diseased mammary arteries and atherosclerotic carotid arteries. Total vessel wall expression of ACE and ACE2 is similar during all stages of atherosclerosis. The observed ACE2 protein is enzymatically active and activity is lower in the stable advanced atherosclerotic lesions, compared to early and ruptured atherosclerotic lesions | Homo sapiens | - |
carotid atherosclerotic plaque | ACE2 mRNA is expressed in early and advanced human carotid atherosclerotic lesions | Homo sapiens | - |
vein | total vessel wall expression of ACE and ACE2 is similar during all stages of atherosclerosis. The observed ACE2 protein is enzymatically active and activity is lower in the stable advanced atherosclerotic lesions, compared to early and ruptured atherosclerotic lesions | Homo sapiens | - |
