Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder. Neuroinflammation is a prevalent pathogenic stress leading to neuronal death in AD. Targeting neuroinflammation to keep neurons alive is an attractive strategy for AD therapy. 1-Trifluoromethoxyphenyl-3-(1-propionylpiperidin-4-yl) urea (TPPU) is a potent inhibitor of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and can enter into the brain. It has good efficacy on a wide range of chronic inflammatory diseases in preclinical animal models. However, the anti-neuroinflammatory effects and molecular mechanisms of TPPU for potential AD interventions remain elusive. With an aim to develop multitarget therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, we screened TPPU against sEH from different mammalian species and a broad panel of human kinases for potential new targets relevant to neuroinflammation in AD. TPPU inhibits both human sEH and p38β kinase, two key regulators of inflammation, with nanomolar potencies and distinct selectivity. To further elucidate the molecular mechanisms, differentiated SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells were used as an AD cell model, and we investigated the neuroprotection of TPPU against amyloid oligomers. We found that TPPU effectively prevents neuronal death by mitigating amyloid neurotoxicity, tau hyperphosphorylation, and mitochondrial dysfunction, promoting neurite outgrowth and suppressing activation and nuclear translocation of NF-κB for inflammatory responses in human nerve cells. The results indicate that TPPU is a potent and selective dual inhibitor of sEH and p38β kinase, showing a synergistic action in multiple AD signaling pathways. Our study sheds light upon TPPU and other sEH/p38β dual inhibitors for potential pharmacological interventions in AD.

摘要

阿尔茨海默病(AD)是最常见的神经退行性疾病。神经炎症是导致 AD 神经元死亡的普遍致病应激。针对神经炎症以保持神经元存活是 AD 治疗的一种有吸引力的策略。1-三氟甲氧基苯基-3-(1-丙酰基哌啶-4-基)脲(TPPU)是一种有效的可溶性环氧化物水解酶(sEH)抑制剂,可进入大脑。它在临床前动物模型中对广泛的慢性炎症性疾病具有良好的疗效。然而,TPPU 对潜在 AD 干预的抗神经炎症作用及其分子机制仍不清楚。为了开发针对神经退行性疾病的多靶治疗药物,我们筛选了 TPPU 对不同哺乳动物物种的 sEH 和广泛的人激酶,以寻找与 AD 中神经炎症相关的潜在新靶标。TPPU 以纳摩尔效力和明显的选择性抑制人类 sEH 和 p38β 激酶,这两种炎症的关键调节剂。为了进一步阐明分子机制,我们使用分化的 SH-SY5Y 人神经母细胞瘤细胞作为 AD 细胞模型,研究了 TPPU 对淀粉样寡聚物的神经保护作用。我们发现 TPPU 通过减轻淀粉样毒性、tau 过度磷酸化和线粒体功能障碍,促进神经突生长并抑制 NF-κB 的激活和核易位来有效防止神经元死亡,从而抑制炎症反应。结果表明,TPPU 是 sEH 和 p38β 激酶的有效且选择性双重抑制剂,在多种 AD 信号通路中表现出协同作用。我们的研究为 TPPU 和其他 sEH/p38β 双重抑制剂在 AD 中的潜在药物干预提供了依据。
