Application
MJN110 has been used as a monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) inhibitor to study its effect on aggressive grooming in rats. It has also been used to inhibit lipid droplet formation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
MJN110 is a potent selective inhibitor of MAGL, the enzyme predominantly responsible for the degradation of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) with >10,000 selectivity over FAAH, the hydrolase that degrades the endocannabinoid anandamide (AEA). MJN110 inhibits rat, mouse and human MAGL with IC50 values ranging from < 100 nM in rat to an IC50 of ~1 nM with 10- and 100-fold selectivity over closely related ABHD6, a serine hydrolase that acts as an alternative hydrolase of 2-AG, and LYPLA1/2 in human PC3 cells. MJN110 showed potent anti-hyperalgesic activity in a rat model of diabetic neuropathy, showing a therapeutic potential for treating diabetes chronic pain.
