The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) is a pivotal regulator of physiological homeostasis and diseases of the cardiovascular system. Recently, new factors have been discovered, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), angiotensin-(1–7) and Mas. This newly defined ACE2–angiotensin-(1–7)–Mas axis was shown to have a critical role in the vasculature and in the heart, exerting mainly protective effects. One important mechanism of the classic and the new RAAS regulate vascular function ...
