Product Description
DESCRIPTION
Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) mediate the hydrolysis of the endocannabinoids arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), respectively. JZL 195 is a potent inhibitor of both FAAH and MAGL (IC50s = 2 and 4 nM, respectively).1 It poorly inhibits neuropathy target esterase and ABHD6 and does not inhibit other brain serine hydrolases. JZL 195 displays time-dependent inhibition of FAAH and MAGL in vivo, consistent with a covalent mechanism of activation.1 The in vivo inhibitory actions of JZL 195 against FAAH and MAGL are comparable to those of the selective inhibitors PF-3845 (Item No. 13279) and JZL 184 (Item No. 13158), respectively.1 Through its inhibitory actions, JZL 195 simultaneously augments brain levels of AEA and 2-AG, producing antinociceptive, cataleptic, and hypomotility effects like those produced by direct CB1agonists.1
