Optimization of a Benzoylpiperidine Class Identifies a Highly Potent and Selective Reversible Monoacylglycerol Lipase (MAGL) Inhibitor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is the enzyme degrading the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol, and it is involved in several physiological and pathological processes.

Of Mice and MAGL (Monoacylglycerol Lipase)

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2011
About 18.8 million American adults suffer depressive disorders that may occur with anxiety and substance abuse. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a compound in marijuana, is a cannabinoid chemical that binds to and activates cannabinoid receptors (CB1) in the pre‐synaptic cell membrane as part of neuron‐to‐neuron transmission in the ...

Simplified assays of lipolysis enzymes for drug discovery and specificity assessment of known inhibitors

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2016
Lipids are used as cellular building blocks and condensed energy stores and also act as signaling molecules. The glycerolipid/ fatty acid cycle, encompassing lipolysis and lipogenesis, generates many lipid signals.

Discovery of long-chain salicylketoxime derivatives as monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is the enzyme hydrolyzing the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) to free arachidonic acid and glycerol.

Design‐Driven Production of Soybean Oil‐Based Structured Fats as Potential Substitutes for Palm‐Based Fats

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examined whether enzymatic modification of soybean oil (SBO) can be tailored to produce trans‐free fats with physicochemical properties comparable to palm olein, stearin, or palm‐mid fractions (PMFs). US‐grown SBO was modified by lipase‐catalyzed acidolysis using palmitic acid at linearly interpolated substrate molar ratios (C16:0 ...

Biobased Polyurethane Films Based on Andiroba (Carapa guianensis) and Buriti (Mauritia flexuosa) Oil Polyols

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Polyurethane films were prepared from andiroba (Carapa guianensis) and buriti (Mauritia flexuosa) oil‐derived polyols, emphasizing their potential as bio‐based materials. UV–Vis analysis indicates the retention of carotenoid‐related chromophoric features within the polymer matrix.

Assessment of the effects of CNR1, FAAH and MGLL gene variations on the synthetic cannabinoid use disorder

open access: yesTürk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2023
Given that drug addiction occurs as a result of complex gene-environment interaction, a number of studies claimed that cannabinoid receptor 1 (CNR1), fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), and monoacylglycerol lipase (MGLL) single nucleotide polymorphisms ...

Conformational gating, dynamics and allostery in human monoacylglycerol lipase. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2020
AbstractInhibition of human Monoacylglycerol Lipase (hMGL) offers a novel approach for treating neurological diseases. The design of inhibitors, targeting active-inactive conformational transitions of the enzyme, can be aided by understanding the interplay between structure and dynamics.
