Epoxyeicosatrienoic acid metabolism in arterial smooth muscle cells.
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are eicosanoids synthesized from arachidonic acid by the cytochrome P450 eposygenase pathway. The present studies demonstrate that 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-EET are rapidly taken up by porcine aortic smooth muscle cells. About half of the uptake is incorporated into ph...
