ALLEVIATING DISORDERS WITH COMBINING AGENTS THAT INCREASE EPOXYGENATED FATTY ACIDS AND AGENTS THAT INCREASE cAMP

摘要

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for promoting and enhancing the analgesic, anesthetic and anticonvulsant properties of epoxygenated fatty acids, in particular, epoxy-eicosatrienoic acids (“EETs”) and inhibitors of soluble epoxide hydrolase (“sEH”) in the presence of elevated levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (“cAMP”) by combining or co-administering the epoxygenated fatty acid, EET and/or inhibitor of sEH with an agent that increases intracellular levels of cAMP, e.g., a phosphodiesterase inhibitor.
