The role of PARs in platelet function is fairly known; however, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. We report that thrombin myristoylates PAR4 in mouse platelets and PAR1 and PAR4 in human platelets, facilitating their membrane transport and interaction, leading to PAR3/4 heterodimers in mice and PAR1/4 heterodimers in humans.

Cardioprotective role of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids in ischemia-reperfusion injury. [PDF]
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are arachidonic acids metabolites that importantly contribute to vascular and cardiac physiology and pathophysiology. Current research in the field of EETs shows that these molecules can significantly reduce the rate of ...

Resolution pharmacology is an emerging strategy to tackle inflammatory pathologies. Bioinspired meroterpenoids induce a lipid mediator class switch toward inflammation resolution in vitro and in vivo by targeting key nodes in lipid mediator biosynthesis and neutral lipid dynamics.

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.

Aims CYP2C19 is one of the most important pharmacogenes, and its activity is highly variable due to factors such as genetics or drug–drug interactions. Due to the lack of an appropriate endogenous CYP2C19 biomarker, surrogate methods to assess its activity are warranted.

Maternal and Fetal Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acids in Normotensive and Preeclamptic Pregnancies [PDF]
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) are cytochrome P450 metabolites of arachidonic acid posited to act in the circulatory adaptation to pregnancy and the development of preeclampsia. Red blood cells (RBCs) may function as major contributors of cis- and trans-EETs.We performed paired analyses of EETs ...

Association between the soluble epoxide hydrolase gene and preeclampsia
Objective: In this study the association between K55R polymorphism, methylation level of the EPHX2 promoter region, and PE was investigated in 520 individuals including 260 PE patients and 260 healthy pregnant women.

Human amylin is secreted from the pancreas of HIP rats and is amyloidogenic, forming aggregates systemically. In comparison with age‐matched control (WT), hyperglycemic (UCD) and amylin knockout rats (AKO), HIP rats showed increased hypoxia‐inducible factors (HIF‐1/2) in heart and liver, alongside alterations in mitochondrial electron transfer system ...

Role of the soluble epoxide hydrolase and cytochrome P450-derived epoxyeicosatrienoic acids in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and hypoxia-induced pulmonary vascular remodelling [PDF]
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) redistributes pulmonary blood flow from areas of low oxygen partial pressure to areas of normal or relativity high oxygen availability, thus optimising the matching of perfusion to ventilation and preventing ...

Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) accelerate diabetic wound healing via targeting the Ephx2/11,12‐EET axis in macrophages. PNS inhibits Ephx2 expression to elevate 11,12‐EET levels, which restores mitochondrial homeostasis by regulating mitochondrial dynamic proteins, reduces mtROS production, and subsequently suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated ...
