Abstract: ACE2-Ang(1-7)-Mas axis antagonistics ACE-AngⅡ-AT1R classic axis in many internal physiological responses ,which plays an important protective role in circulation ,urinary,digestive systems and inflammation response. The biological functions of ACE2-Ang(1-7)-Mas axis is closely related to its signaling pathways. Exploring the biological function of this adjustment axis and its signaling transduction pathways will provide new ideas for related diseases.
