The angiotensin 2 conversion enzyme (ACE-2) has been identified as the receptor that facilitates access to SARS-CoV-2 in cells; evidence shows that its concentration varies during the various stages of viral infection. Therapeutic agents modifying the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may be able to modulate the concentration of ACE-2 and the various components of the system. In this article we examine the latest evidence on the association between the use of RAS modifying agents and coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. Our investigation and critical literature research does not suggest discontinuation of ACEIs/ARBs treatment in clinical practice as there is a lack of robust evidence. However, we recommend further well-structured epidemiological studies investigating this sensitive issue that may provide important new suggestions for implementing guidelines.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Коронавирус SARS-CoV-2 является причиной коронавирусной болезни (COVID-19), вызвавшей недавнюю глобальную пандемию, которая унесла тысячи жизней во всем мире и представляет собой проблему для здоровья, имеющую лишь несколько прецедентов в истории человечества. Ангиотензинпревращающий фермент 2 (ACE-2) был идентифицирован как рецептор, который облегчает доступ к SARS-CoV-2 в клетку; данные показывают, что его концентрация варьируется на разных стадиях вирусной инфекции. Терапевтические агенты, модифицирующие ренин-ангиотензиновую систему (РАС), могут быть способны модулировать концентрацию ACE-2 и различных компонентов системы. В этой статье мы исследуем последние доказательства связи между использованием агентов, модифицирующих RAS, и COVID-19. Наше исследование и данные литературы не предлагают прекращения лечения ACEIs/ARBs в клинической практике, поскольку для этого отсутствуют надежные доказательства. Тем не менее мы рекомендуем провести дальнейшие хорошо структурированные эпидемиологические исследования этой деликатной темы, результаты которых могут способствовать появлению новые принципов терапии COVID-19.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>COVID-19</kwd><kwd>renin-angiotensin system</kwd><kwd>SARS-CoV-2</kwd><kwd>pandemic</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>COVID-19</kwd><kwd>ренин-ангиотензиновая система</kwd><kwd>SARS-CoV-2</kwd><kwd>пандемия</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Ashour H.M., Elkhatib W.F., Rahman M.M., Elshabrawy H.A.
