Pro-inflammatory GPR75 and anti-apoptotic phospholipase signaling pathways contribute to the ameliorating effect of soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibition on chronic experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice
CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY(2023)
Abstract
Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibition has currently emerged as a therapeutic target in the treatment of various neuroinflammatory neurodegenerative diseases, including multiple sclerosis. Previously, we reported that treatment of mice with an sEH-selective inhibitor, 1-(1-propanoylpiperidin-4-yl)-3-[4-(trifluoromethoxy) phenyl]urea; TPPU), ameliorated chronic experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced by myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein 35-55 peptide immunization followed by injection of pertussis toxin to mice via regulating pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory pathways in the central nervous system. This study tested the hypothesis that the pro-inflammatory G protein-coupled receptor (GPR) 75 and anti-apoptotic phospholipase C (PLC) signaling pathways also contribute to the ameliorating effect of TPPU on chronic EAE. Brains and spinal cords of phosphate-buffered saline-, dimethyl sulfoxide-, or TPPU (3 mg/kg)-treated mice were used for the measurement of sEH, GPR75, G alpha q/11, activator protein (AP)-1, PLC beta 4, phosphoinositide lymphoma (Bcl)-2, semaphorin (SEMA) 3A, and myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) expression and/or activity by using the immunoblotting method. Expression of sEH, GPR75, G alpha q/11, c-jun, phosphorylated c-Jun, and SEMA3A was lower, while PLC beta 4, phosphorylated PI3K p85 alpha, phosphorylated Akt1, phosphorylated MEK1/2, phosphorylated ERK1/2, phosphorylated CREB1, Bcl-2, and myelin PLP expression was higher in the tissues of TPPU (3 mg/kg)-treated mice as compared with the EAE and vehicle control groups. Inhibition of sEH by TPPU ameliorates chronic EAE through suppressing pro-inflammatory GPR75/G alpha q/11/AP-1 pathway and reducing expression of the remyelination inhibitor, SEMA3A, as well as increasing anti-apoptotic PLC/PI3K/ Akt1/MEK1/2/ERK1/2/CREB1/Bcl-2 pathway activity and myelin PLP expression.
