Abstract
As a novel chiral amide fungicide, the enantioselective behaviors of mandipropamid in the soil environment are unclear. Furthermore, there is a need to understand the stress response mechanisms of soil organisms exposed to mandipropamid isomers. Therefore, the selective bioaccumulation of mandipropamid isomers and detoxification mechanisms of earthworms (Eisenia fetida) were investigated in this study. Our results suggested that the enantioselective bioaccumulation of mandipropamid in earthworms occurred with the preferential enrichment of S-(+)-isomer. The activities of detoxification enzymes, such as cytochrome P450 (CYP450), glutathione-S-transferases (GST), and carboxylesterase (CarE), changed significantly upon exposure to S-(+)- and R-(-)-mandipropamid (particularly for CYP450 and GST). A transcriptome analysis revealed that more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were observed under S-(+)-isomer exposure (15,798) than those under R-(-)-isomer exposure (12,222), as compared to the control group. These DEGs were mainly enriched in bile secretion and thyroid hormone signaling pathways, which were related to the detoxification process in earthworms. Moreover, the 20 DEGs, which exhibited the most profound changes (such as CYP2 and CYP3A4) in these pathways, were screened, clustered, and observed to be mainly involved in regulating the detoxification function of earthworm cells. These results indicated that detoxification systems played an essential role in the stress response to mandipropamid exposure. Additionally, earthworms were more sensitive to the stress induced by S-(+)-mandipropamid than that induced by R-(-)-mandipropamid. This is the first study to elucidate the mandipropamid detoxification mechanism of earthworms at the enantiomer level, which can be beneficial for remediating chiral pollutants.

Abstract
Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) regulate cellular homeostasis through hydrolysis of epoxides to less-reactive diols. The first discovered EH was EPHX1, also known as mEH. EH functions remain partly unknown, and no pathogenic variants have been reported in humans. We identified two de novo variants located in EPHX1 catalytic site in patients with a lipoatrophic diabetes characterized by loss of adipose tissue, insulin resistance, and multiple organ dysfunction. Functional analyses revealed that these variants led to the protein aggregation within the endoplasmic reticulum and to a loss of its hydrolysis activity. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated EPHX1 knockout (KO) abolished adipocyte differentiation and decreased insulin response. This KO also promoted oxidative stress and cellular senescence, an observation confirmed in patient-derived fibroblasts. Metreleptin therapy had a beneficial effect in one patient. This translational study highlights the importance of epoxide regulation for adipocyte function and provides new insights into the physiological roles of EHs in humans.

Abstract
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase/epoxide hydrolase 1 (mEH/EPHX1) works in conjunction with cytochromes P450 to metabolize a variety of compounds, including xenobiotics, pharmaceuticals and endogenous lipids. mEH has been most widely studied for its role in metabolism of xenobiotic and pharmaceutical compounds where it converts hydrophobic and reactive epoxides to hydrophilic diols that are more readily excreted. Inhibition or genetic disruption of mEH can be deleterious in the face of many industrial, environmental or pharmaceutical exposures and EPHX1 polymorphisms are associated with the development of exposure-related cancers. The role of mEH in endogenous epoxy-fatty acid (EpFA) metabolism has been less well studied. In vitro, mEH metabolizes most EpFAs at a far slower rate than soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and has thus been generally considered to exert a minor role in EpFA metabolism in vivo. Indeed, sEH inhibitors or sEH-deficiency increase EpFA levels and are protective in animal models of cardiovascular disease. Recently, however, mEH was found to have a previously unrecognized and substantial role in EpFA metabolism in vivo. While few studies have examined the role of mEH in cardiovascular homeostasis, there is now substantial evidence that mEH can regulate cardiovascular function through regulation of EpFA metabolism. The discovery of a prominent role for mEH in epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) metabolism, in particular, suggests that additional studies on the role of mEH in cardiovascular biology are warranted.

Abstract
Biological aging is an inevitable part of life that has intrigued individuals for millennia. The progressive decline in biological systems impacts cardiac function and increases vulnerability to stress contributing to morbidity and mortality in aged individuals. Yet, our understanding of the molecular, biochemical and physiological mechanisms of aging as well as sex differences is limited. There is growing evidence indicating CYP450 epoxygenase-mediated metabolites of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are active lipid mediators regulating cardiac homeostasis. These epoxy metabolites are rapidly hydrolyzed and inactivated by the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). The current study characterized cardiac function in young and aged sEH null mice compared to the corresponding wild-type (WT) mice. All aged mice had significantly increased cardiac hypertrophy, except in aged female sEH null mice. Cardiac function as assessed by echocardiography demonstrated a marked decline in aged WT mice, notably significant decreases in ejection fraction and fractional shortening in both sexes. Interestingly, aged female sEH null mice had preserved systolic function, while aged male sEH null mice had preserved diastolic function compared to aged WT mice. Assessment of cardiac mitochondria demonstrated an increased expression of acetyl Mn-SOD levels that correlated with decreased Sirt-3 activity in aged WT males and females. Conversely, aged sEH null mice had preserved Sirt-3 activity and better mitochondrial ultrastructure compared to WT mice. Consistent with these changes, the activity level of SOD significantly decreased in WT animals but was preserved in aged sEH null animals. Markers of oxidative stress demonstrated age-related increase in protein carbonyl levels in WT and sEH null male mice. Together, these data highlight novel cardiac phenotypes from sEH null mice demonstrating a sexual dimorphic pattern of aging in the heart.

Abstract
The potential complex formation between microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) and cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase (CYP) has been a subject of research for many decades. Such an association would enable efficient substrate channeling between CYP and mEH and as such represent an attractive strategy to prevent deleterious accumulation of harmful metabolic by-products such as CYP-generated epoxide intermediates. However, such complex formation is experimentally difficult to prove, because CYP and mEH are membrane-bound proteins that are prone to unspecific aggregation after solubilization. Here, we report the development of a FRET-based procedure to analyze the mEH–CYP interaction in living cells by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. With this non-invasive procedure, we demonstrate that CYP2J5 and mEH associate in the endoplasmic reticulum of recombinant HEK293 cells to the same extent as do CYP2J5 and its indispensible redox partner cytochrome P450 reductase. This presents final proof for a very close proximity of CYP and mEH in the endoplasmic reticulum, compatible with and indicative of their physical interaction. In addition, we provide with FAMPIR a robust and easy-to-implement general method for analyzing the interaction of ER membrane-resident proteins that share a type I topology.

Beyond detoxification: a role for mouse mEH in the hepatic metabolism of endogenous lipids. Arch Toxicol 2017; 91:3571-3585.

Abstract
Microsomal and soluble epoxide hydrolase (mEH and sEH) fulfill apparently distinct roles: Whereas mEH detoxifies xenobiotics, sEH hydrolyzes fatty acid (FA) signaling molecules and is thus implicated in a variety of physiological functions. These epoxy FAs comprise epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and epoxy-octadecenoic acids (EpOMEs), which are formed by CYP epoxygenases from arachidonic acid (AA) and linoleic acid, respectively, and then are hydrolyzed to their respective diols, the so-called DHETs and DiHOMEs. Although EETs and EpOMEs are also substrates for mEH, its role in lipid signaling is considered minor due to lower abundance and activity relative to sEH. Surprisingly, we found that in plasma from mEH KO mice, hydrolysis rates for 8,9-EET and 9,10-EpOME were reduced by 50% compared to WT plasma. This strongly suggests that mEH contributes substantially to the turnover of these FA epoxides—despite kinetic parameters being in favor of sEH. Given the crucial role of liver in controlling plasma diol levels, we next studied the capacity of sEH and mEH KO liver microsomes to synthesize DHETs with varying concentrations of AA (1–30 μM) and NADPH. mEH-generated DHET levels were similar to the ones generated by sEH, when AA concentrations were low (1 μM) or epoxygenase activity was curbed by modulating NADPH. With increasing AA concentrations sEH became more dominant and with 30 μM AA produced twice the level of DHETs compared to mEH. Immunohistochemistry of C57BL/6 liver slices further revealed that mEH expression was more widespread than sEH expression. mEH immunoreactivity was detected in hepatocytes, Kupffer cells, endothelial cells, and bile duct epithelial cells, while sEH immunoreactivity was confined to hepatocytes and bile duct epithelial cells. Finally, transcriptome analysis of WT, mEH KO, and sEH KO liver was carried out to discern transcriptional changes associated with the loss of EH genes along the CYP-epoxygenase–EH axis. We found several prominent dysregulations occurring in a parallel manner in both KO livers: (a) gene expression of Ephx1 (encoding for mEH protein) was increased 1.35-fold in sEH KO, while expression of Ephx2 (encoding for sEH protein) was increased 1.4-fold in mEH KO liver; (b) Cyp2c genes, encoding for the predominant epoxygenases in mouse liver, were mostly dysregulated in the same manner in both sEH and mEH KO mice, showing that loss of either EH has a similar impact. Taken together, mEH appears to play a leading role in the hydrolysis of 8,9-EET and 9,10-EpOME and also contributes to the hydrolysis of other FA epoxides. It probably profits from its high affinity for FA epoxides under non-saturating conditions and its close physical proximity to CYP epoxygenases, and compensates its lower abundance by a more widespread expression, being the only EH present in several sEH-lacking cell types.
