The regulation of cytosolic epoxide hydrolase in mice.
The concentration of cytosolic epoxide hydrolase in untreated and clofibrate-treated mouse liver extracts was estimated by immunoblotting. Clofibrate treatment of mice was found to increase liver cytosolic epoxide hydrolase concentration by two fold, showing that the increase in cytosolic epoxide hydrolase in mouse liver after clofibrate treatment is primarily due to induction. The induced and uninduced cytosolic epoxide hydrolase, and epoxide hydrolase in the cytosolic and mitochondrial fractions were compared and found to be identical or very similar. Cytosolic epoxide hydrolases in kidney and liver were similar in molecular weight and antigenic properties.
