Abstract:
Cytochrome P450 monoxygenase converts arachionic acid to four epoxyeicosatrienoic acid regiosomes: 5,6-EET(epoxyeicosatrienoic acid);8,9-EET; 11,12-EET and 14,15-EET.Recent studies show that EETs are involved in signal transduction. EETs open Ca 2+ -sensitive K + channel and inhibit Na + channel,Ca 2+ -sensitive Cl - channel and so on. What is more ,EETs have been demonstrated to activate PP60 c-src and initiate a tyrosine kinase cascade that mediates mitogenic effects.
