| Title: | Angiotensin-(1-7) and obesity: role in cardiorespiratory fitness and COVID-19 implications |
| Authors: | Daisy Motta Santos Robson Augusto Souza dos Santos Sérgio Henrique Sousa Santos |
| Abstract: | We have read with interest the recent review by Zbinden-Foncea et al. suggesting that high levels of cardiorespiratory fitness induced by prior exercise training may confer some innate immune protection against coronavirus disease (COVID-19) by attenuating the “cytokine storm syndrome” by modulating angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) effects. However, it is important to highlight that the benefic effects of physical exercise also involves the angiotensin-(1-7)/MAS1 proto-oncogene, GPCR receptor (MAS receptor; Mas) axis activation. |
