1 Cytochrome P450 eicosanoids are activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha. Eicosanoids cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
2 Cytochrome P450 (P450) eicosanoids regulate vascular tone, renal tubular transport, cellular proliferation, and inflammation. Eicosanoids cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
3 We show here that P450 eicosanoids can bind to and activate PPARalpha and result in the modulation of PPARalpha target gene expression. Eicosanoids cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
4 In addition, P450 eicosanoids induced CYP4A1, sEH, and CYP2C11 expression, suggesting that they can regulate their own levels. Eicosanoids cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
5 Given that P450 eicosanoids have multiple cardiovascular effects, pharmacological modulation of their formation and/or degradation may yield therapeutic benefits. Eicosanoids cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
