Quantitation of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) in the perfusate collected from mesenteric arteries stimulated with shear stress (2 and 10 dyn/cm2) for 5 min in control conditions and in the presence of 6-(2-proparglyoxyphenyl) hexanoic acid (PPOH; 5 × 10−5 M) of NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME)-treated male (N/n = 5/5) and female (N/n = 7/18) rats. Values are means ± SE; N/n, no. of rats/vessels. *Significant difference from males. #Significant difference from female controls: P < 0.05.
