Angiotensin (1-7)

low risk

Also: Ang(1-7) · MasR agonist · ACE2 product

Moderate Evidence Research Only

Angiotensin (1-7) is the primary product of ACE2 enzymatic activity — the counter-regulatory arm of the renin-angiotensin system. Gained significant research attention post-COVID-19 (ACE2 is the SARS-CoV-2 receptor). Demonstrates cardiovascular protection, anti-fibrosis, and metabolic benefits in human trials.

Reported Benefits

Cardiovascular protection

Moderate Evidence 34 studies

Human trials show blood pressure reduction, endothelial improvement, and anti-fibrotic effects.

Mechanism of Action

Activates Mas receptor (MasR); opposes Angiotensin II/AT1R axis; produces vasodilation, natriuresis, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic effects.

ACE2 Pathway Context

Angiotensin (1-7) is the ‘good’ product of the renin-angiotensin system — opposing the pro-hypertensive, pro-fibrotic Angiotensin II. The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically increased research into ACE2/Ang(1-7) physiology.
