Fatty acid epoxides are important lipid signaling molecules involved in the regulation of vascular tone and homeostasis.Tissue and plasma levels of these mediators are determined by the activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenases and the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and targeting the latter is an effective way of manipulating epoxide levels in vivo.We investigated the role of the sEH in regulating the mobilization and proliferation of progenitor cells with vaseulogenic/reparative potential.
