Conversely, PAH patients had a lower concentration of Ang(1–7) than controls (0.69, 0.474–0.91 pmol·mL−1 versus 4.07, 2.82–6.73 pmol·mL−1; p<0.001), and a lower concentration of Ang(1–9) and AngA. Similarly, the ACE2 concentration was higher than in controls (8.7, 5.35–13.2 ng·mL−1 versus 4.53, 1.47–14.3 ng·mL−1; p=0.011), whereas the ACE2 activity was significantly reduced (1.88, 1.08–2.81 nmol·mL−1 versus 5.97, 3.1–17.8 nmol·mL−1; p<0.001). No significant differences were found among the three different aetiological forms of PAH.Conclusions The AngII–ACE2–Ang(1–7) axis appears to be altered in human PAH and we propose that this imbalance, in favour of AngII, plays a role in the pathogenesis of the severe PAH. Further mechanistic studies are warranted.This study demonstrates that in patients with PAH of different aetiologies there are alterations of the ACE2-angiotensin (1–7)-MAS axis. Analysis of blood samples also demonstrates the presence of antibodies directed against ACE2 https://bit.ly/3alEbnJ
