Proposed mechanism of the role of sEH in the pathogenesis of PD and DLB. Inflammation and ER stress can increase the expression of sEH in the striatum, resulting in enhanced metabolism of anti-inflammatory EpFAs, leading to increased phosphorylation of α-synuclein (Ren et al., 2018). The sEH inhibitors may prevent the progression of aggregation of phosphorylated α-synuclein in the brain.
