Newest firstSome musculoskeletal disorders, including osteoarthritis; arthrosis; post-traumatic injuries; and other inflammatory tendon, joint and muscular afflictions, still represent unmet medical needs. Cetylated fatty acids (CFAs) are key components of widely distributed over-the-counter products, especially for topical use, which are intended to reduce symptoms associated with these conditions. Nevertheless, the mechanis…
Open article record in new tab ↗Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is an important enzyme of the endocannabinoid system that catalyzes the degradation of the major endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG). MAGL is associated with pathological conditions such as pain, inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, elevated levels of MAGL have been found in aggressive breast, ovarian and melanom…
Monoacylglycerol lipase is a serine hydrolase that plays a major role in the degradation of the endocannabinoid neurotransmitter 2-arachidonoylglycerol. A wide number of MAGL inhibitors are reported in literature; however, many of them are characterised by an irreversible mechanism of action and this behavior determines an unwanted chronic MAGL inactivation, which acquires a functional antagonism of the endocannab…
