A novel eicosanoid, 5,6-trans-epoxy-8Z,11Z,14Z-eicosatrienoic acid (5,6-trans-EET) was identified in rat red blood cells. Characterization of 5,6-trans-EET in the sn-2 position of the phospholipids was accomplished by hydrolysis with phospholipase A2 followed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry as well as electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) analyses. Presence of other trans-EETs was also demonstrated. The ability of both 5,6-trans-EET and its product 5,6-erythro-DHET to relax preconstricted renal interlobar arteries was significantly greater than that of 5,6-cis-EET. In contrast, 5,6-cis-EET and 5,6-trans-EET were equipotent in their capacity to inhibit collagen induced rat platelet aggregation, whereas 5,6-erythro-DHET was without effect. We propose that the red blood cells serve as a reservoir for epoxides which on release may act in a vasoregulatory capacity.
