Mechanisms by Which Arachidonic acid Metabolite, Epoxyeicosatrienoic acid Elicit Cardioprotection Against Ischemic Reperfusion Injury
DownloadFall 2011
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are cytochrome P450 epoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid that have cardioprotective properties but the exact mechanism(s) remains unknown. Evidence suggests phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and plasma membraneATP-sensitive potassium channels (pmKATP) are...

Ischemic heart disease remains a major cause of illness, disability and death worldwide, as such there remains a need for novel pharmacological agents that protect against myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenase...

MODULATING CYTOCHROME P450-MEDIATED ARACHIDONIC ACID METABOLISM AS A POTENTIAL NEW TREATMENT MODALITY FOR CARDIAC HYPERTROPHY
DownloadSpring 2017
El-Sherbeni, Ahmed Abd El-Hakeem
Arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism has long been a very appealing target for drug discovery and development efforts. Beside cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways, AA is also metabolized by the recently recognized cytochrome P450 (P450) pathway, forming several biologically-active...

Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EET) are cytochrome P450 epoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid. Evidence shows that they mediate protective effects in the cardiovascular system promoting cell survival. In this thesis, the major focus was to investigate if and how EETs regulate autophagy in...

Role of CYP-mediated Arachidonic Acid Metabolites in Development of Cardiac Hypertrophy and Chronic Doxorubicin-induced Cardiotoxicity
DownloadSpring 2013
Drug-induced cardiotoxicity is classified as a predisposing factor leading to cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Of importance, doxorubicin (DOX, adriamycin) is considered as an effective anticancer agent whose major limiting side effect is cardiotoxicity. Of importance, several studies...

Mitochondria are at the center of cardiac health and disease. These vital organelles provide most of the energy to the contractile apparatus and play a strategic role in cardiomyocyte survival during cellular stress. Cardiovascular diseases and many aging related diseases are often associated...

THE ROLE OF CYTOCHROME P450 AND THEIR ASSOCIATED ARACHIDONIC ACID METABOLITES IN THE INITIATION AND PROGRESSION OF CARDIAC HYPERTROPHY
DownloadSpring 2016
Heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of mortality and disability in adults worldwide. Cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk factor and one of the major hallmarks of HF. Research in cardiac hypertrophy is considered as a research into the early events in the development of HF. The...

The role of cytochrome P450 derived arachidonic acid metabolites against Angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy in Sprague Dawley rats and the RL-14 cell line
DownloadFall 2015
Several cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and their arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites play essential roles in the maintenance of cardiovascular health, and their alteration gives rise to a number of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Recent data demonstrated...
