Inhibitors
| Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |
|---|---|---|---|
| enalapril | treatment of mdx mice (murine model of duchenne muscular dystrophy) with the ACE inhibitor enalapril significantly increases the net force and tetanic isometric force of the gastrocnemius muscle in sedentary and exercised dystrophic mice. Enalapril decreases the necrotic areas in the gastrocnemius muscles in both conditions of mdx mice. ACE inhibition treatment also leads to a decrease in fibrosis, as manifested by a reduction in ECM protein levels and collagen amount | Mus musculus |  |
