Novel analogs of arachidonylethanolamide are presented which have higher affinities for the cannabinoid CB1 and/or CB2 receptor sites. Further, most of the analogs exhibit greater metabolic stability than arachidonylethanolamide. The improved receptor affinity and selectivity and/or greater metabolic stability make these analogs therapeutically useful as medications for relief of pain caused by cancer and nausea caused by chemotherapy, as well as for peripheral pain. The compounds may also be useful as oral and topical contraceptives, in suppression of the immune system, enhancement of appetite and in treatment of psychomotor disorders, multiple sclerosis and hypertension.
新型的花生四烯酰乙醇胺类似物具有更高的亲和力,适用于大麻素CB1和/或CB2受体位点。此外,大多数类似物表现出比花生四烯酰乙醇胺更高的代谢稳定性。改善的受体亲和力和选择性和/或更高的代谢稳定性使这些类似物在作为药物用于缓解癌症引起的疼痛和化疗引起的恶心,以及外周疼痛方面具有治疗用途。这些化合物也可能用于口服和局部避孕药、免疫系统抑制、增强食欲以及治疗精神运动障碍、多发性硬化和高血压。
