  • Title: Angiotensin-converting enzyme in uveitis and sarcoidosis.
    Author: Rømer FK, Schmidt P, Geday H.
    Journal: Acta Ophthalmol (Copenh); 1980 Apr; 58(2):243-9. PubMed ID: 6249067.
    Abstract:
    Serum angiotensin-converting enzyme (SACE) was studied in a group of 29 sarcoidosis patients (among whom five had uveitis) and in 22 patients with non-sarcoid uveitis. SACE was normal in all non-sarcoid patients and elevated in 62 per cent of the patients with sarcoidosis. Thus an elevated SACE is closely linked to sarcoidosis and may be a valuable tool in evaluating patients with uveitis in search of a sarcoid origin.
