Uremic Apelin and Leucocytic Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 in CKD Patients
Apelin peptides (APLN) serve as second substrates for angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and, in contrast to angiotensin II (AngII), exert blood-pressure lowering and vasodilatation effects through binding to G-coupled APLN receptor (APLNR).
