We tested the hypothesis that the cardioprotective effects of OP-D and SM-I on MI/R injury are associated with increased expression of CYP2J3 and enhanced circulating 11,12-EET levels in rats. Taken together, our results show that the effects of OP-D and SM-I were also mediated by the activation of the PI3K/Akt/eNOS signaling pathway, while inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway and antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects were involved in the cardioprotective effects of OP-D and SM-I.
