ACE2 Activation in Sepsis Cardiomyopathy
2026-08-11
The February 2024 study in Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics identifies ACE2 downregulation as a feature of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy and examines whether pharmacological ACE2 activation can restore cardiac function. Using Diminazene Aceturate and the ACE2 inhibitor MLN-4760 in a mouse cecal ligation and puncture model, the authors connect ACE2–MasR–Sirt1 signaling with mitochondrial biogenesis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.
