pubmed:abstractText |
Experimental evidence and clinical studies suggest that the renin-angiotensin system and its inhibitors may play a role in regulating the mechanisms of liver fibrosis development. The present study aimed to verify whether carriage of specific angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion (I)/deletion (D) allelic variants, modulating angiotensin II generation, could affect the outcome of recurrent hepatitis C after liver transplantation, via several metabolic pathways.
