Analgesia mediated by soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors is dependent on cAMP.
Pain is a major health concern even though numerous analgesic agents are available. Side effects and lack of wide-spectrum efficacy of current drugs justify efforts to better understand pain mechanisms. Stabilization of natural epoxy-fatty acids (EFAs) through inhibition of the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) reduces pain. However, in the absence of an underlying painful state, inhibition of sE...
متن کاملOrally bioavailable potent soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors.
A series of N,N'-disubstituted ureas having a conformationally restricted cis- or trans-1,4-cyclohexane alpha to the urea were prepared and tested as soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors. This series of compounds showed low nanomolar to picomolar activities against recombinant human sEH. Both isomers showed similar potencies, but the trans isomers were more metabolically stable in human h...
متن کاملSoluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors and heart failure.
Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death in the Western societies. Heart failure (HF) is due primarily to progressive myocardial dysfunction accompanied by myocardial remodeling. Once HF develops, the condition is, in most cases, irreversible and is associated with a very high mortality rate. Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ...
متن کاملSoluble epoxide hydrolase in rat inflammatory cells is indistinguishable from soluble epoxide hydrolase in rat liver.
Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is a ubiquitous mammalian enzyme for which liver and kidney are reported to have the highest activity. We have shown that the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) activity present in rat neutrophils and macrophages is kinetically, immunologically, and physically indistinguishable from rat liver cytosolic sEH. Cytosol from rat liver or inflammatory cells and recombinan...
متن کاملMammalian soluble epoxide hydrolase is identical to liver hepoxilin hydrolase.
Hepoxilins are lipid signaling molecules derived from arachidonic acid through the 12-lipoxygenase pathway. These trans-epoxy hydroxy eicosanoids play a role in a variety of physiological processes, including inflammation, neurotransmission, and formation of skin barrier function. Mammalian hepoxilin hydrolase, partly purified from rat liver, has earlier been reported to degrade hepoxilins to t...
