Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) hydrolyzes epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) to less bioactive diols, and EETs have cardioprotective properties. However, the effects of sEH inhibition in ethanol (EtOH)-induced cardiac fibrosis are unknown.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000This study was designed to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of sEH inhibition in chronic EtOH feeding-induced cardiac fibrosis. C57BL/6J mice were fed a 4% Lieber-DeCarli EtOH diet for 8 weeks, and the sEH inhibitor 1-trifluoromethoxyphenyl-3-(1-propionylpiperidin-4-yl) urea (TPPU) was administered throughout the experimental period.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000The results showed that chronic EtOH intake led to cardiac dilatation, collagen deposition, and autophagosome accumulation, while TPPU administration ameliorated these effects. In vitro, treating primary cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) with EtOH resulted in CF activation, including alpha smooth muscle actin overexpression, collagen synthesis, and cell migration. Moreover, EtOH disturbed CF autophagic flux, as evidenced by the increased LC3 II/I ratio and SQSTM1 expression, and by the enhanced autophagosome accumulation. TPPU treatment prevented the activation of CF induced by EtOH and restored the impaired autophagic flux by suppressing mTOR activation.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000Taken together, these findings suggest that sEH pharmacological inhibition may be a unique therapeutic strategy for treating EtOH-induced cardiac fibrosis.","PeriodicalId":7410,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism, clinical and experimental research","volume":"42 10","pages":"1970-1978"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/acer.13847","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36345606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
