Abstract
The present article shows the diagnosis of different type leukemias in children by the activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme in blood serum to be not promising. Beside that, enalaprilat, carboxylate inhibitor of ACE, exhibited no specific cytotoxic activity against cancer cells; moreover, in the case of chronic myeloleukemia (K-562) and T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (MOLT-4), its weak protective action against cancer cells was noted.
