20. Overexpression of ADAM17 increases shed ACE2 and decreases cellular ACE2 levels in pancreatic islets. Whereas ADAM17 has the ability to shed ACE2, ADAM17 does not deplete ACE2 from pancreatic islets in diabetic db/db mice. PMID: 26441236
21. ACE2 and Ang-(1-7) significantly inhibit early atherosclerotic lesion formation via protection of endothelial function and inhibition of inflammatory response. PMID: 25721616
