1 IC50 value: The enzyme activity was inhibited by 50%. The IC50 value was obtained by interpolation from linear regression analysis. 2 ACE: Angiotensin converting enzyme. 3 Each value is expressed as mean ± standard deviation (n = 4). Means with different capital letters within a column differ significantly (p < 0.05).
