TABLE 1. sEH specific activities in liver, kidney, and heart tissue homogenates from the wild-type and Ephx2-null mice.

Tissues were extracted as described under “Experimental Procedures” and examined for sEH activity in S9 fractions using tDPPO as a substrate. Ephx2-null mice show no epoxide hydrolase activity toward tDPPO in any of examined tissues in two different Ephx2-null mouse colonies originated from NIH or BI. All results are means ± S.D. of three separate experiments as described under “Experimental Procedures.”
