The epoxide hydrolases (EHs) are enzymes present in all living organisms, which transform
epoxide containing lipids by the addition of water. In plants and animals, many of these lipid …

▪ Abstract Organisms are exposed to epoxide-containing compounds from both exogenous
and endogenous sources. In mammals, the hydration of these compounds by various …

In recent years several new mouse models for lung cancer have been described. These
