چکیده
A library of 30 beta-lactams has been prepared from (3R,4R)-3-[(R)-1'-(tbutyldimethylsilyloxy)-ethyl]-4-acetoxy-2-azetidinone, and the corresponding deacetoxy derivative, by sequential N- and O-functionalizations with various omega-alkenoyl and omega-arylalkanoyl chains. All compounds were selective inhibitors of hFAAH versus hMGL, and IC(50) values in the nanomolar range (5-14 nM) were recorded for the best representatives. From time-dependent preincubation and rapid dilution studies, and from docking analyses in a homology model of the target enzyme, a reversible mechanism of inhibition of hFAAH is proposed.

A series of (1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)(4-benzylpiperazin-1-yl)methanones and of (1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)methanones has been prepared and tested on human fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL). In the benzylpiperazinyl series, compound 29 (ML30) exhibited an IC(50) value of 0.54 nM on MAGL, combined with a 1000-fold selectivity ...
متن کاملInhibitors of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase and Monoacylglycerol Lipase: New Targets for Future Antidepressants
Cannabis and analogs of Δ<sup>9</sup>-tetrahydrocannabinol have been used for therapeutic purposes, but their therapeutic use remains limited because of various adverse effects. Endogenous cannabinoids have been discovered, and dysregulation of endocannabinoid signaling is implicated in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD). Recently, endocannabinoid hydrolytic enzy...
متن کاملSynthesis and pharmacological evaluation of 2,4-dinitroaryldithiocarbamate derivatives as novel monoacylglycerol lipase inhibitors.
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is responsible for signal termination of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), an endocannabinoid neurotransmitter endowed with several physiological effects. Previously, we showed that the arylthioamide scaffold represents a privileged template for designing MAGL inhibitors. A series of 37 compounds resulting from pharmacomodulations around the arylthioamide template we...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potential of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase, Monoacylglycerol Lipase, and N-Acylethanolamine Acid Amidase Inhibitors.
Fatty acid ethanolamides (FAEs) and endocannabinoids (ECs) have been shown to alleviate pain and inflammation, regulate motility and appetite, and produce anticancer, anxiolytic, and neuroprotective efficacies via cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) or type 2 (CB2) or via peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPAR-α) stimulation. FAEs and ECs are synthesized by a series of endogenous enzy...
متن کاملLack of selectivity of URB602 for 2-oleoylglycerol compared to anandamide hydrolysis in vitro.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Two compounds, URB602 and URB754, have been reported in the literature to be selective inhibitors of monoacylglycerol lipase, although a recent study has questioned their ability to prevent 2-arachidonoyl hydrolysis by brain homogenates and cerebellar membranes. In the present study, the ability of these compounds to inhibit monoacylglycerol lipase and fatty acid amide hy...
