Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a hormone that increases blood pressure. It's also known as the main effector molecule of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. The main effector of the RAS, angiotensin II (Ang II), contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease as both an endocrine and a local autocrine/paracrine hormone, producing acute (vasoconstriction, water/salt retention) and more importantly chronic. Angiotensin II binds to its specific receptors and exerts its effects in the brain, kidney, adrenal, vascular wall, and the heart.

With the capability of inducing elevated expression of ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2), the cellular receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) or ACE inhibitors treatment may have a controversial role in both facilitating virus infection and reducing pathogenic inflammation.
We investigated the plasma angiotensin II (Ang II) and renin levels in 82 non-hypertensive patients (42 mild cases, 25 severe cases, and 15 critically ill cases) infected by SARS-CoV-2 and 12 critically ill patients not infected by SARS-CoV-2 serving as control.
