Angiotensin II receptor blockers do not inhibit ACE [angiotensin-converting enzymes]. Instead, they block the vasoconstricting and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the angiotensin I receptors in many tissues, especially in the vascular smooth muscle and adrenal gland tissues. 8, record 1, English, - angiotensin%20II%20receptor%20blocker
