In mice studies a MasR blocker (A779) administered alone was not associated with systolic blood pressure alterations, and the hypotensive effect produced by rACE2 co-infused with Ang II was unaffected by A779 co-administration, indicating that the hypotensive activity of rACE2 mainly depended on Ang II degradation rather than on increase of Ang (1–7) and MasR activation [82].
