Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of late-onset dementia, and there exists an unmet medical need for effective treatments for AD. The accumulation of neurotoxic amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques contributes to the pathophysiology of AD. encoding soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH)-a key enzyme for epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) signaling that is mainly expressed in lysosomes of astrocytes in the adult brain-is cosited at a locus associated with AD, but it is unclear whether and how it contributes to the pathophysiology of AD. In this report, we show that the pharmacologic inhibition of sEH with 1-trifluoromethoxyphenyl- 3-(1-propionylpiperidin-4-yl) urea (TPPU) or the genetic deletion of reduces Aβ deposition in the brains of both male and female familial Alzheimer's disease (5×FAD) model mice. The inhibition of sEH with TPPU or the genetic deletion of alleviated cognitive deficits and prevented astrocyte reactivation in the brains of 6-month-old male 5×FAD mice. 14,15-EET levels in the brains of these mice were also increased by sEH inhibition. In cultured adult astrocytes treated with TPPU or 14,15-EET, astrocyte Aβ clearance was increased through enhanced lysosomal biogenesis. Infusion of 14,15-EET into the hippocampus of 5×FAD mice prevented the aggregation of Aβ. Notably, a higher concentration of 14,15-EET (200 ng/ml) infusion into the hippocampus reversed Aβ deposition in the brains of 6-month-old male 5×FAD mice. These results indicate that EET signaling, especially 14,15-EET, plays a key role in the pathophysiology of AD, and that targeting this pathway is a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of AD. There are limited treatment options for Alzheimer's disease (AD). encoding soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is located at a locus that is linked to late-onset AD, but its contribution to the pathophysiology of AD is unclear. Here, we demonstrate that sEH inhibition or deletion alleviates pathology in familial Alzheimer's disease (5×FAD) mice. Inhibiting sEH or increasing 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) enhanced lysosomal biogenesis and amyloid-β (Aβ) clearance in cultured adult astrocytes. Moreover, the infusion of 14,15-EET into the hippocampus of 5×FAD mice not only prevented the aggregation of Aβ, but also reversed the deposition of Aβ. Thus, 14,15-EET plays a key role in the pathophysiology of AD and therapeutic strategies that target this pathway may be an effective treatment.

摘要

阿尔茨海默病(AD)是导致迟发性痴呆的主要原因,目前临床上仍迫切需要有效的 AD 治疗方法。神经毒性淀粉样β(Aβ)斑块的积累是 AD 病理生理学的基础。编码可溶性环氧化物水解酶(sEH)的基因位于与 AD 相关的一个基因座上,sEH 是环氧二十碳三烯酸(EET)信号通路的关键酶,主要在成年大脑星形胶质细胞的溶酶体中表达,但尚不清楚其是否以及如何导致 AD 的病理生理学改变。在本报告中,我们发现用 1-三氟甲氧基苯基-3-(1-丙酰基哌啶-4-基)脲(TPPU)抑制 sEH 的药理作用或敲除 均可减少雄性和雌性家族性 AD(5×FAD)模型小鼠大脑中的 Aβ沉积。用 TPPU 抑制 sEH 或敲除 可缓解 6 月龄雄性 5×FAD 小鼠的认知缺陷,并防止大脑中星形胶质细胞的再激活。这些小鼠大脑中的 14,15-EET 水平也因 sEH 抑制而增加。在经 TPPU 或 14,15-EET 处理的培养成年星形胶质细胞中,Aβ 清除率通过增强溶酶体发生而增加。将 14,15-EET 注入 5×FAD 小鼠的海马中可阻止 Aβ聚集。值得注意的是,将浓度较高的 14,15-EET(200ng/ml)注入海马可逆转 6 月龄雄性 5×FAD 小鼠大脑中的 Aβ 沉积。这些结果表明 EET 信号,特别是 14,15-EET,在 AD 的病理生理学中起关键作用,靶向该途径可能是治疗 AD 的一种潜在治疗策略。目前 AD 的治疗方法有限。编码可溶性环氧化物水解酶(sEH)的 基因位于与迟发性 AD 相关的基因座上,但它对 AD 病理生理学的贡献尚不清楚。在这里,我们证明 sEH 抑制或 缺失可减轻家族性 AD(5×FAD)小鼠的病理。抑制 sEH 或增加 14,15-环氧二十碳三烯酸(EET)可增强培养的成年星形胶质细胞中的溶酶体发生和 Aβ 清除。此外,将 14,15-EET 注入 5×FAD 小鼠的海马中不仅可以防止 Aβ聚集,还可以逆转 Aβ 的沉积。因此,14,15-EET 在 AD 的病理生理学中起关键作用,靶向该途径的治疗策略可能是一种有效的治疗方法。
