The soporific activity of cis-9,10-octadecenoamide and other soporific fatty acid primary amides is neutralized by hydrolysis in the presence of fatty-acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). Hydrolysis of cis-9,10-octadecenoamide by FAAH leads to the formation of oleic acid, a compound without soporific activity. FAAH has be isolated and the gene encoding FAAH has been cloned, sequenced, and used to express recombinant FAAH. Inhibitors of FAAH are disclosed to block the hydrolase activity.
顺式-9,10-十八碳烯酰胺和其他催眠脂肪酸原始酰胺的催眠活性在存在脂肪酸酰胺水解酶(FAAH)的情况下被水解中和。 FAAH水解顺式-9,10-十八碳烯酰胺会形成油酸,这是一种没有催眠活性的化合物。 FAAH已被分离,编码FAAH的基因已被克隆,测序并用于表达重组FAAH。 FAAH的抑制剂被披露可以阻止水解酶活性。
