Abstract
The inventors demonstrate that the phosphatase and hydrolase domains of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) regulate the cardiovascular calcification process and revealed that inhibition of the phosphatase domain of sEH could represent a new pharmacological target in the prevention of cardiovascular calcification. The present invention thus relates to a therapeutically effective amount of an inhibitor of phosphatase activity of soluble epoxide hydrolase for use in a method of treating cardiovascular calcification in a subject in need thereof.
