Article Abstract

Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is an enzyme that is considered a potential therapeutic target in human cardiovascular disease. Triterpenes (-) and phenylpropanoids (-) were isolated from to obtain sEH inhibitors through various chromatographic purificationtechniques. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against sEH, and methyl rosmarinate (), martynoside (), dimethyl lithospermate () and 9″ methyl lithospermate () showed remarkable inhibitory activity, with the IC values ranging from 10.6 ± 3.2 to 35.7 ± 2.1 µM. Kinetic analysis of these compounds revealed that , and were competitive inhibitors bound to the active site, and was the preferred mixed type inhibitor for allosteric sites. Additionally, molecular modeling has identified interacting catalytic residues and bindings between sEH and inhibitors. The results suggest that these compounds are potential candidates that can be used for further development in the prevention and treatment for cardiovascular risk.

Genetic studies have linked (encoding soluble epoxide hydrolase, sEH) and (encoding cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2) to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Elevated levels of sEH and COX-2 found in AD patients and animals suggest their involvement in neurodegeneration, glial activation, vascular dysfunction, and inflammation. This study evaluated the effects of a new dual sEH/COX-2 inhibitor, PTUPB, on cerebrovascular function and cognition in TgF344-AD rats.

A novel series of triazole-linked indole derivatives was designed, synthesized, and evaluated as soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors (sEHIs) for their potential anticancer activity. These compounds exhibit strong binding affinity within the hydrophobic pockets of sEH, with compounds 9a and 9b emerging as the most potent inhibitors, achieving IC₅₀ values of 0.270 ± 0.

Can any Basic/Nucleophile Quaternary Salt Promote the Carbonatation of Epoxides? A Review.

ACS Omega

August 2025

Institute of Chemistry, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Av. Bento Gonçalves, 9500, Porto Alegre, RS 91501-970, Brazil.

This review examines the role of ionic liquids (ILs) in the catalytic carbonation of epoxides for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates, focusing on the key factors that influence reaction efficiency. The nucleophilicity and basicity of the anions in IL catalysts are highlighted as critical components for promoting the cycloaddition reaction with CO. The solubility and ionicity of the ILs also significantly affect the reaction, with higher ionicity leading to better solubilization and catalytic performance.

Background: Macrophage immunomodulation has emerged as a novel intervention and therapeutic strategy for temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA), potentially serving as a key approach for reducing synovial inflammation and promoting cartilage repair. The soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor (sEHi), TPPU, has shown potential therapeutic effects against inflammatory diseases and osteogenesis by elevating endogenous Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs). However, it remains largely unknown whether TPPU can reduce inflammation and cartilage degradation in the TMJOA.
