## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Angiotensin Iβconverting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II antagonists, and the ACE insertion/deletion (I/D) gene polymorphism all influence serum angiotensin II action. Because angiotensin II levels have been associated with cancer, the objective of the current ep
An insertion(I)/deletion(D) polymorphism in the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene seems to be associated with clinical heart disease in patients with diabetes mellitus. It is not known whether increased atherosclerosis or other factors among individuals with certain ACE-gene subtypes form t
