Furthermore, QFHXD suppressed the PF progression by down-regulating Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) -Angiotensin II (AngII) -Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor (AT1R) axis (P<0.01) and up-regulating Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) -Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) -Mas axis (P<0.05). The gene discussed is AGT; the disease is pemphigus foliaceus.
