...The latest research also revealed that the ACE2 in brain not only responsible for the body blood pressure regulation, but also present a protective profile for the brain itself in a series of neurologic pathologies, including aging-related neuroinflammation (45), focal cerebral ischemia (46), demyelinating disease (47), Alzheimer’s disease (48), and neuropsychiatric disorders (49)....
