General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction genetically modified mice carrying three copies of the ACE gene (three-copy mice) show increased angiotensin I-converting enzyme which alters peripheral and renal vascular reactivity to angiotensin II and bradykinin in mice. Mice with three copies of the ACE gene and a moderate genetic increase in ACE synthesis display abnormal systemic and renal hemodynamic responses to ANGII. No ACE genotype effect on the blood pressure response is observed for vasoconstrictor norepinephrine. The increase in endogenous ANG II formation due to increased ACE activity does not result in desensitization to the peptide's effect through downregulation of ANG II type 1 (AT1) receptor synthesis. Regulatory effects of the mutation, overview Mus musculus
