Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acids and/or Their Metabolites Promote Hypoxic Response of Cells

Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), including 5,6-EET, 8,9-EET, 11,12-EET, and 14,15-EET, are produced by cytochrome P450 (P450) such as CYP2C8 and 2C9; and they are hydrolyzed to dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids (DHETs) by epoxide hydrolase. Particular interest in the epoxygenase reaction has developed...
