Genetically determined disorders of epoxygenase pathway of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids as a pathogenetic basis for the development of cardiovascular diseases
Rapid development of genetics and research in the field of polymorphism of genes opens up wide field for development of pharmacological agents for correction of cardiovascular diseases. One of the trends in this area is correction of the metabolism epoxyeicosatrienoic acids as biological factor in the regulation of vascular homeostasis. This review is devoted to characteristics of metabolism epoxyeicosatrienoic acids and their biological role in the regulation of the cardiovascular system.
