Soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibition reverses cognitive dysfunction in a mouse model of metabolic syndrome by modulating inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Midlife metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with cognitive impairment in late life. The mechanism of delayed MetS-related cognitive dysfunction (MetSCD) is not clear, but it has been linked to systemic inflammation and chronic cerebral microangiopathy. Currently there is no treatment for late life MetSCD other than early risk factor modification. We investigated the effect of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitor 4-[[trans-4-[[(tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]dec-1-ylamino)carbonyl]amino]cyclohexyl]oxy]-benzoic acid (t-AUCB) on cognitive performance, cerebral blood flow (CBF), and central and peripheral inflammation in the high-fat diet (HFD) model of MetS in mice. At 6 weeks of age, male mice were randomly assigned to receive either HFD or standard chow (STD) for 6 months. Mice received eithe
