Circulating ACE2 activity predicts mortality and disease severity in hospitalized COVID-19 patients

Objectives: Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) represents the primary receptor for SARS-CoV-2 to enter endothelial cells. Here we investigated circulating ACE2 activity to predict the severity and mortality of COVID-19. Methods: Serum ACE2 activity was measured in COVID-19 (110 critically ill an...
