Cholesterol epoxide hydrolase and cancer
Cholesterol epoxide hydrolase (ChEH) catalyzes the hydration of cholesterol-5,6-epoxides (5,6-EC) into cholestane-3β,5α,6β-triol. ChEH is a hetero-oligomeric complex called the anti-estrogen binding site (AEBS) comprising 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ(8)-Δ(7)-isomerase (D8D7I) and 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ(7)-reductase (DHCR7).

Epoxides and Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase in Cardiovascular Physiology [PDF]
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are arachidonic acid metabolites that importantly contribute to vascular and cardiac physiology. The contribution of EETs to vascular and cardiac function is further influenced by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) that degrades EETs to diols. Vascular actions of EETs include dilation and angiogenesis.

Their bioactive constituents act through antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and metabolic‐regulating mechanisms, validating their classification as functional foods. Evidence from clinical and biochemical studies largely supports these benefits, although some claims stem from preliminary or in vitro findings.

Soluble epoxide hydrolase limits mechanical hyperalgesia during inflammation
Background Cytochrome-P450 (CYP450) epoxygenases metabolise arachidonic acid (AA) into four different biologically active epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) regioisomers.

Catalysis of potato epoxide hydrolase, StEH1 [PDF]
The kinetic mechanism of epoxide hydrolase (EC 3.3.2.3) from potato, StEH1 (Solanum tuberosum epoxide hydrolase 1), was studied by presteady-state and steady-state kinetics as well as by pH dependence of activity. The specific activities towards the different enantiomers of TSO (trans-stilbene oxide) as substrate were 43 and 3 μmol·min−1·mg−1 with the ...

A D‐optimal design of experiments maps the influence of key reaction parameters on enzymatic ε‐caprolactone polymerization. Thus linking multivariate conditions to conversion, molar mass characteristics, and by‐product formation, whilst demonstrating that biobased solvents offer viable, sustainable media for polyester synthesis.

Sex‐dependent role of 20‐HETE synthesis in outcome from ischemic stroke in rats
Abstract The lipid mediator 20‐HETE is produced by ω‐hydroxylation of arachidonic acid mediated by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes including CYP4A, which has four distinct isoforms in rodents. Several laboratories demonstrated that 20‐HETE synthesis inhibition reduces infarct volume following middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in male animals. Here,
