Abstract
ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2) has a multiplicity of physiological roles that revolve around its trivalent function: a negative regulator of the renin-angiotensin system, facilitator of amino acid transport, and the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and SARS-CoV-2 receptor.

ACE2 has recently been identified as the SARS-CoV-2 receptor, the infective agent responsible for coronavirus disease 2019, providing a critical link between immunity, inflammation, ACE2, and cardiovascular disease. Although sharing a close evolutionary relationship with SARS-CoV, the receptor-binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 differs in several key amino acid residues, allowing for stronger binding affinity with the human ACE2 receptor, which may account for the greater pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2. The loss of ACE2 function following binding by SARS-CoV-2 is driven by endocytosis and activation of proteolytic cleavage and processing. The ACE2 system is a critical protective pathway against heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction including, myocardial infarction and hypertension, and against lung disease and diabetes mellitus. The control of gut dysbiosis and vascular permeability by ACE2 has emerged as an essential mechanism of pulmonary hypertension and diabetic cardiovascular complications. Recombinant ACE2, gene-delivery of <italic>Ace2</italic>, Ang 1–7 analogs, and Mas receptor agonists enhance ACE2 action and serve as potential therapies for disease conditions associated with an activated renin-angiotensin system. rhACE2 (recombinant human ACE2) has completed clinical trials and efficiently lowered or increased plasma angiotensin II and angiotensin 1-7 levels, respectively. Our review summarizes the progress over the past 20 years, highlighting the critical role of ACE2 as the novel SARS-CoV-2 receptor and as the negative regulator of the renin-angiotensin system, together with implications for the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic and associated cardiovascular diseases.</p></div></front><back><div1

ACE2 has recently been identified as the SARS-CoV-2 receptor, the infective agent responsible for coronavirus disease 2019, providing a critical link between immunity, inflammation, ACE2, and cardiovascular disease. Although sharing a close evolutionary relationship with SARS-CoV, the receptor-binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 differs in several key amino acid residues, allowing for stronger binding affinity with the human ACE2 receptor, which may account for the greater pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2. The loss of ACE2 function following binding by SARS-CoV-2 is driven by endocytosis and activation of proteolytic cleavage and processing. The ACE2 system is a critical protective pathway against heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction including, myocardial infarction and hypertension, and against lung disease and diabetes mellitus. The control of gut dysbiosis and vascular permeability by ACE2 has emerged as an essential mechanism of pulmonary hypertension and diabetic cardiovascular complications. Recombinant ACE2, gene-delivery of <italic>Ace2</italic>, Ang 1–7 analogs, and Mas receptor agonists enhance ACE2 action and serve as potential therapies for disease conditions associated with an activated renin-angiotensin system. rhACE2 (recombinant human ACE2) has completed clinical trials and efficiently lowered or increased plasma angiotensin II and angiotensin 1-7 levels, respectively. Our review summarizes the progress over the past 20 years, highlighting the critical role of ACE2 as the novel SARS-CoV-2 receptor and as the negative regulator of the renin-angiotensin system, together with implications for the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic and associated cardiovascular diseases.</p></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>cardiovascular diseases</kwd><kwd>coronavirus</kwd><kwd>dysbiosis</kwd><kwd>heart failure</kwd><kwd>renin-angiotensin system</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><p>Knowledge of the underlying biology and physiology of ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2) has accumulated over the last 20 years since its discovery and has provided a major stimulus to further our understanding of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS).<sup><xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>–<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref></sup> ACE2 has distinct roles ranging from catalytic activities with various substrates, as functional receptors for severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronaviruses (SARS-CoV), and as an amino acid transporter.<sup><xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>–<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref></sup> ACE2 functions as a master regulator of the RAS mainly by converting Ang (angiotensin) I and Ang II into Ang 1–9 and Ang 1–7, respectively.<sup><xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>,<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref></sup> Both loss-of-function and gain-of-function approaches in experimental models of human diseases have defined a critical role for ACE2 in heart failure (HF), systemic and pulmonary hypertension (PH), myocardial infarction (MI), and diabetic cardiovascular complications.<sup><xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref></sup> Gut dysbiosis and altered gut permeability have emerged as an important mechanism of disease controlled by the ACE2 axis in both vascular and lung diseases,<sup><xref rid="R9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>,<xref rid="R10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref></sup> as well as in diabetes mellitus.<sup><xref rid="R11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup> Clinical and experimental studies support a physiological and pathophysiological role for ACE2 in cardiovascular disease (CVD), and increasing/activating ACE2 may elicit protective effects against hypertension and CVD, although this has yet to be proven clinically.<sup><xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>,<xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>–<xref rid="R14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref></sup></p><p>More recently, ACE2 has garnered widespread interest as the cellular receptor of SARS-CoV-2, the causative virus of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which emerged from Wuhan, China, in late 2019.<sup><xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>,<xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>,<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref></sup> ACE2 offers protection in acute lung injury, suggesting that, although it facilitates viral entry at the epithelial surface, the ACE2/Ang 1–7 axis can be carefully manipulated to mitigate SARS-induced tissue injuries, which represents a potential target for therapeutic intervention.<sup><xref rid="R17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>,<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref></sup> In experimental models of lung disease, catalytically active ACE2 alleviates pulmonary injury and vascular damage<sup><xref rid="R17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>,<xref rid="R19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref></sup> and prevent PH, decreased lung fibrosis, arterial remodeling, and improved right ventricular performance<sup><xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref></sup> due to a combination of direct action in the lungs and via the ACE2-dependent gut-lung axis.<sup><xref rid="R19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>,<xref rid="R20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref></sup> In 2 phase II clinical trials, administration of ACE2 was shown to reduce systemic inflammation and shifted the RAS peptide balance away from Ang II toward Ang 1–7.<sup><xref rid="R21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>,<xref rid="R22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref></sup> Ongoing global efforts are focused on manipulating the ACE2/Ang 1–7 axis to curtail SARS-CoV-2 infection while affording maximal protective effects against lung and cardiovascular damage in patients with COVID-19.

Almost simultaneously, in 2000, 2 independent approaches searching for such ACE homologs revealed the existence of a close relative of the <italic>ACE</italic> gene designated <italic>ACEH2</italic> or <italic>ACE2.</italic><sup><xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref></sup><italic>ACEH</italic> was cloned from a human lymphoma cDNA library and the identical <italic>ACE2</italic> from a human HF ventricular cDNA library, the latter emphasizing a potential role for ACE2 in cardiovascular pathologies. Expression of the <italic>ACE2</italic> gene was initially established in the heart, kidney, and testis, but subsequent studies have shown a much broader distribution, including the upper airways, lungs, gut, and liver (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>A). Sequence comparison of ACE and ACE2 strongly suggested that ACE2, like ACE, was an integral transmembrane protein (and ectoenzyme) with a transmembrane anchor close to the C-terminus (type I membrane protein). A close evolutionary relationship existed between the <italic>ACE</italic> and <italic>ACE2</italic>, genes and it was presumed that the 2 proteins would have similar substrate specificities and involvement in the RAS.</p><fig id="F1" position="float"><label>Figure 1.</label><caption><p><bold>Historical timeline of discovery of the major renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components, including ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2</bold>). Renin was the first component of the RAS discovered following the finding that extracts from rabbit kidney produced pressor effects (Tigerstedt and Bergman, 1898). Constriction of the renal artery was then found to lead to hypertension (HTN), thus driving the discovery of hypertensin and angiotonin (and later termed angiotensin; Goldblatt et al<sup><xref rid="R27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref></sup>; Page and Helmer<sup><xref rid="R24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref></sup>). Ang (angiotensin) was subsequently purified, and 2 forms were resolved: Ang I and Ang II. Therefore, the existence of a converting enzyme was predicted (ACE) and subsequently isolated and characterized (Skeggs et al<sup><xref rid="R26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref></sup>). The counter-regulatory axis of RAS was then described, pioneered with the discovery of ACE2 by 2 independent research groups (Donoghue et al<sup><xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref></sup>; Tipnis et al<sup><xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref></sup>) and identification of the Ang1–7/Mas receptor axis (Santos et al<sup>101</sup>). The cardioprotective effects of ACE2 were discovered shortly after (Crackower et al<sup><xref rid="R25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref></sup>). Studies have identified the ACE2 protease domain as the receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV; Li et al<sup><xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref></sup>) and, more recently, as the SARS-CoV-2 receptor (Walls et al<sup><xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref></sup>; Yan et al<sup><xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref></sup>).</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="res-126-10.1161.circresaha.120.317015-g001"></graphic></fig><fig id="F2" position="float"><label>Figure 2.</label><caption><p><bold>ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2) expression throughout the body and schematic of ACE2 primary domains.</bold><bold>A</bold>, ACE2 is expressed in the vascular system (endothelial cells, migratory angiogenic cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells), heart (cardiofibroblasts, cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, pericytes, and epicardial adipose cells) and kidneys (glomerular endothelial cells, podocytes and proximal tubule epithelial cells). ACE2 is also expressed and functions in the local RAS of the liver (cholangiocytes and hepatocytes), retina (pigmented epithelial cells, rod and cone photoreceptor cells and Müller glial cells), enterocytes of the intestines, circumventricular organs of the central nervous system, upper airway (goblet and ciliated epithelial cells), and alveolar (Type II) epithelial cells of the lungs and pulmonary vasculature. <bold>B</bold>, ACE2 has an extracellular facing N-terminal domain and a C-terminal transmembrane domain with a cytosolic tail.

The activation of the RAS axis due to binding of SARS-CoV-2 to ACE2, leading to direct loss of ACE2 and indirectly via proteolytic processing and shedding, partly drives the systemic manifestations of COVID-19. Careful targeting of the RAS axes is needed in these patients to optimize their clinical outcomes, including the use of AT1 receptor blockers (ARB).</p></sec><sec><title>Acknowledgments</title><p>We acknowledge patients and their families for participating in our studies.</p></sec><sec><title>Sources of Funding</title><p>We acknowledge funding support from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (285071), Heart & Stroke Foundation (G-18-0022161), and Alberta Innovates to G.Y.
