A highly selective mPGES-1 inhibitor to block abdominal aortic aneurysm progression in the angiotensin mouse model
© 2024. The Author(s)..
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a deadly, permanent ballooning of the aortic artery. Pharmacological and genetic studies have pointed to multiple proteins, including microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase-1 (mPGES-1), as potentially promising targets. However, it remains unknown whether administration of an mPGES-1 inhibitor can effectively attenuate AAA progression in animal models. There are still no FDA-approved pharmacological treatments for AAA. Current research stresses the importance of both anti-inflammatory drug targets and rigor of translatability. Notably, mPGES-1 is an inducible enzyme responsible for overproduction of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-a well-known principal pro-inflammatory prostanoid. Here we demonstrate for the first time that a highly selective mPGES-1 inhibitor (UK4b) can completely block further growth of AAA in the ApoE-/- angiotensin (Ang)II mouse model. Our findings show promise for the use of a mPGES-1 inhibitor like UK4b as interventional treatment of AAA and its potential translation into the clinical setting.
