Abstract
Arachidonic acid is oxidized by the microsomal cytochrome P-450 monooxygenases of rabbit kidney cortex and medulla to products that include W and W-1 alcohols and several epoxyacids. In vivo administration of deoxycorticosterone acetate results in a time dependent and selective induction of the arachidonic acid W/W-1 oxygenase activity of cortex and medulla microsomal fractions (145% and 220% of controls, respectively). Initial segmental analysis shows the presence of an active epoxygenase activity in the isolated rabbit pars recta and its in vitro activation by p-aminohippuric acid.
