Eicosanoids were quantified in shams and at 5 and 120 minutes after CA, and were reported as pmoL/g tissue. Metabolites from the entire CYP pathway were quantified. Vasoactive metabolites include 20-HETE (vasoconstrictor) and EETs (vasodilators). DHETEs are products of EET degradation by the soluble epoxide hydrolase.
