Chymase Dependent Pathway of Angiotensin II Generation and Rapeseed Derived Peptides for Antihypertensive Treatment of Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

The contribution of chymase, one of the enzymes responsible for angiotensin II generation in non-ACE pathway, remains unclear in the development of hypertension. The aim of the study was to investigate chymase inhibition as potential antihypertensive therapy in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR)....
