Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors block the
a. effect of aldosterone on the kidney.
b. release of rennin.
c. conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I.
d. conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
Homework Answers
Option D is correct
Beacause Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors block the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. And thus used for the teatment of hypertension. Example of drugs: Losartan and Telmesartan.

angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors are a central part of the treatment of heart failure because they have more than one action to address the pathological changes in this disorder. which of the following pathological changes in heart failure is not addressed by ace inhibitors ? a. changes in the structure of the left ventricle so that it dilates, hypertrophies, and uses energy less efficiently b. reduced formation of cross bridges so that contractile force decreases c. activation of the sympathetic...

Describe the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System. ACE inhibitors are commonly prescribed meds for hypertension. Why do these work to lower BP? In your opinion, does the use of ACE inhibitors address the causative problem of hypertension (meaning: do all hypertensives have overactive Angiotensin Converting Enzymes?)? Be sure to thoroughly explain your position from the standpoint of this unit AND previous unit material.

Enalaprilat is a competitive inhibitor of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which cleaves the blood-pressure regulating peptide angiotensin I. ACE has a KM=52 μM for angiotensin I, which is present in plasma at a concentration of 79 μM. When enalaprilat is present at 2.8 nM, the activity of ACE in plasma is 11 % of its uninhibited activity. What is the value of KI for enalaprilat?

23. Beta blockers cannot be withdrawn right away and the dose needs to be weaned for 1-2 weeks. a. True b. False 24. Which of the following is TRUE about aldosterone? a. It causes the secretion of steroids. b. It's a hormone released by the adrenal glands that increases the absorption of water and sodium from the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the kidney's nephrons. c. It's stimulated for release by angiotensin II and increases the absorption of...

Using a table format, identify the three normal controls of blood pressure and how angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), calcium channel blockers, and vasodilator affect these controls. There are several classifications of antihypertensive medications used for control of hypertension. Some classifications are more commonly used specific population. What are the common concerns with the use of specific classifications of antihypertensive across the lifespan? .Many older adults are prescribed antianginal drugs. What factors make these patients, more...
