development of MAGL inhibitors has been greatly limited by the side effects associated with the prolonged MAGL inactivation. Importantly, it could be preferable to use reversible MAGL inhibitors in vivo, but nowadays only few reversible compounds have been developed. In the present study, structural optimization of a previously developed class of MAGL inhibitors led to the identification of compound 23
单酰基甘油脂酶(MAGL)是降解内源性大麻素2-花生四烯酸甘油酯的酶,它涉及几个生理和病理学过程。MAGL的治疗潜力与包括癌症在内的多种疾病有关。MAGL抑制剂的发展受到与长时间MAGL失活相关的副作用的极大限制。重要的是,在体内使用可逆的MAGL抑制剂可能是优选的,但是如今仅开发了很少的可逆化合物。在本研究中,对先前开发的一类MAGL抑制剂的结构优化导致了化合物23的鉴定,该化合物被证明是一种非常有效的可逆MAGL抑制剂(IC50 = 80 nM),相对于MAGL的其他主要成分具有选择性内源性大麻素系统
