A cosmetic method for modulating pigmentation in a subject includes administering a modulator of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2 modulator) to the subject. The ACE2 modulator can be an inhibitor of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2 inhibitor), in which case, the ACE2 inhibitor can be administered to increase pigmentation in the subject. The ACE2 modulator can also be an activator of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2 activator), in which case the ACE2 activator can be administered to decrease pigmentation in the subject. The treatment of inflammatory skin disease can also be achieved by inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2.
一种调节受试者色素沉着的美容方法包括向受试者施用血管紧张素转化酶 2 的调节剂(ACE2 调节剂)。ACE2 调节剂可以是血管紧张素转换酶 2 的抑制剂(ACE2 抑制剂),在这种情况下,可以施用 ACE2 抑制剂来增加受试者的色素沉着。ACE2 调节剂也可以是血管紧张素转化酶 2 的激活剂(ACE2 激活剂),在这种情况下,可以使用 ACE2 激活剂来减少受试者的色素沉着。还可以通过抑制血管紧张素转化酶 2 来治疗炎症性皮肤病。
