      Nasal goblet and ciliated cells have the highest expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is the main receptor for SARS-CoV-2. 2 Recently, Hou et al6 showed that ciliated cells with ACE2 expression were the cells . most susceptible. to infection, rather than submucosal glandular cells.

      Captopril (Lisinopril) – Inhibits angiotensin I to angiotensin II converstion in the lungs by blocking Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in pulmonary circulation. (ACE Inhibitor). Sartans – block Angiotensin II receptors, therefore decrease aldosterone release, sodium retention, blood pressure.

      The rapid inflammatory response and increased glycosylation of the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor increases CoV2-19 disease severity via a higher propensity for cellular intrusion SARS-CoV-2 using the ACE2 receptor. The amount of glycosylated ACE2, not just the amount of ACE2 is associated with viral binding and fusion.

      Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) predominantly lining the alveoli of the lungs (but can come from many sources of epithelial tissue) then completes the activation by converting angiotensin I into Angiotensin II, which is the biologically active form of this hormone. The actions of Angiotensin II are multifaceted, it stimulates:

      We experience cough as a problem, but coughing is a very protective, mostly involuntary reflex that prevents our lungs from “filling up” with all sorts of dusts, molds, mucous, water, bacteria, food particles, and so on; in addition to this protective reflex, macrophages in the lungs are also protective; when coughing fails to expel ...

      The virus is breathed into your lungs and its spike proteins lock onto special chemicals on the surface of your lung cells, called ACE 2 receptors. Once the virus is locked on, it gets pulled inside your cell. Once inside, the envelope disintegrates and releases the viral RNA into the cell.
