Biochem/physiol Actions

LY320135 is a potent CB1 receptor antagonist/inverse agonist (Ki = 141 nM) with greater than 70-fold selectivity over CB2 receptors (Ki > 10 μM). Structurally dissimilar from SR 141716A and AM 251. Shows weak binding to both 5-HT2 (Ki = 6.4 μM) and muscarinic receptors (Ki = 2.1 μM)

Monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) hydrolyzes 2-arachidonoylglycerol to arachidonic acid and glycerol. Inhibition of MGL may attenuate neuroinflammation by enhancing endocannabinoid signaling and decreasing prostaglandin (PG) production.

CB1 cannabinoid receptors (CB1Rs) are attractive therapeutic targets for numerous central nervous system disorders. However, clinical application of cannabinoid ligands has been hampered owing to their adverse on-target effects. Ligand-biased signaling from, and allosteric modulation of, CB1Rs offer pharmacological approaches
