Description |
A cell-permeable, blood-brain-barrier-permeant, and orally available carbamate compound that selectively inhibit MAGL (monoacylglycerol lipase) activity over FAAH (fatty acid amide hydrolase) and 35 other murine brain serine hydrolases, both in vitro (IC 50 = 6-8 nM against 2-AG hydrolysis by MAGL vs. 4 µM against anandamide/AEA hydrolysis by FAAH) and in mice in vivo (5-fold 2-AG enhancement and 75% MAGL activity inhibition in brain membrane from mice 4 hr after a single JZL184 dosage at 4 mg/kg via i.p.) in an irreversible, time- and dose-dependent manner
