Aging, which is characterized by enhanced cell senescence and functional decline of tissues, is a major risk factor for many chronic diseases. Accumulating evidence shows that age-related dysfunction in the colon leads to disorders in multiple organs and systemic inflammation. However, the detailed pathological mechanisms and endogenous regulators underlying colon aging are still largely unknown. Here, we report that the expression and activity of the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) enzyme are increased in the colon of aged mice. Importantly, genetic knockout of sEH attenuated the age-related upregulation of senescent markers p21, p16, Tp53, and β-galactosidase in the colon. Moreover, sEH deficiency alleviated aging-associated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the colon by reducing both the upstream regulators Perk and Ire1 as well as the downstream pro-apoptotic effectors Chop and Gadd34. Furthermore, treatment with sEH-derived linoleic acid metabolites, dihydroxy-octadecenoic acids (DiHOMEs), decreased cell viability and increased ER stress in human colon CCD-18Co cells in vitro. Together, these results support that the sEH is a key regulator of the aging colon, which highlights its potential application as a therapeutic target for reducing or treating age-related diseases in the colon.

D007249 Inflammation A pathological process characterized by injury or destruction of tissues caused by a variety of cytologic and chemical reactions. It is usually manifested by typical signs of pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function.
