Variants of the gene ALOX5AP (also known as FLAP) encoding arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein are known to be associated with risk of myocardial infarction. Here we show that a haplotype (HapK) spanning the LTA4H gene encoding leukotriene A4 hydrolase, a protein in the same biochemical

OBJECTIVE To determine expression levels of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) and serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in patients with acute cerebral infarction and their clinical significance. Methods: A total of 80 patients with acute cerebral infarction in Chongqing Cancer

DNA damage caused by mutagens found in tobacco smoke may contribute to the development of coronary heart disease (CHD). Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (EPHX1) is involved in the metabolism of tobacco smoke mutagens and an amino acid substitution (H139R) in exon 4 of the EPHX1 gene is associated with

The physiologic events leading to apoptosis in myocardial infarction and the molecules involved in the death process have not been clarified unequivocally. We developed a method to search for serum factors that induce apoptosis of human cells, using serum obtained from patients within 1 day of the

Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH), a key enzyme in the metabolism of vasodilatory epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), is sexually dimorphic, suppressed by estrogen, and contributes to underlying sex differences in cerebral blood flow and injury after cerebral ischemia. We tested the hypothesis that sEH

Background: Soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors (sEHi) have anti-arrhythmic effects, and we previously found that the novel sEHi t-AUCB (trans-4[-4-(3-adamantan-1-yl-ureido)-cyclohexyloxy]-benzoic acid) significantly inhibited

This study was aimed to evaluate the preventive role of phytic acid on lysosomal enzymes in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial infarction (MI) in male Wistar rats. Rats subcutaneously injected with ISO (85 mg/kg) at an interval of 24 h for two days showed a significant increase in the activities

The synergistic effect of nicorandil (K(ATP) channel opener) and amlodipine (calcium channel blocker) on lysosomal hydrolases in serum and heart was examined by determining the activity of beta-glucuronidase, beta-N-acetyl glucosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, cathepsin-D and acid phosphatase on

BACKGROUND Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are natural angiogenic mediators regulated by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). Inhibitors of sEH can stabilize EETs levels and were reported to reduce atherosclerosis and inhibit myocardial infarction in animal models. In this work, we investigated whether

Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors have been demonstrated to have cardiovascular protective actions. This hydrolase enzyme converts fatty acid epoxides to their corresponding diols, and this conversion can alter the biologic activity of these metabolites. We hypothesized that

Pathophysiological responses, including cardiovascular complications, often alter with age. Cardioprotective effects of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) toward acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury have been well documented. However, biological relevance of EET-evoked cardioprotection in the

Diets rich in natural antioxidants are associated with reduced risk of heart diseases. This study was aimed to evaluate the preventive role of naringin on cardiac troponin T (cTnT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-isoenzyme, cardiac marker enzymes, electrocardiographic (ECG)-patterns and lysosomal

Abnormal cardiac fibrosis indicates cardiac dysfunction and poor prognosis in myocardial infarction (MI) patients. Many studies have demonstrated that the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of fibrosis. Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCHL1), a member

UNASSIGNED Soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors (sEHIs) had been demonstrated to produce cardioprotective effects against ischemia-induced lethal arrhythmias, but the exact mechanisms remain unknown. The present study was designed to investigate whether the beneficial effects of sEHIs are related to

BACKGROUND It has been demonstrated that soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors (sEHIs) are protective against ischemia-induced lethal arrhythmias, but the mechanisms involved are unknown. Previously, we showed that sEHIs might reduce the incidence of ischemic arrhythmias by suppressing microRNA-1
