The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) has been implicated as a key retrograde mediator in the nervous system based on pharmacological studies using inhibitors of the 2-AG biosynthetic enzymes diacyglycerol lipase alpha and beta (DAGL-alpha/beta). Here, we show by competitive activity-based protein profiling that the DAGL-alpha/beta inhibitors, tetrahydrolipstatin (THL) and RHC80267, block several brain serine hydrolases with potencies equal to or greater than their inhibitory activity against DAGL enzymes. Interestingly, a minimal overlap in target profiles was observed for THL and RHC80267, suggesting that pharmacological effects observed with both agents may be viewed as good initial evidence for DAGL-dependent events.
基于使用2-花生四烯酸甘油酯(2-AG)生物合成酶二酰基甘油脂肪酶α和β(DAGL-α/β)抑制剂的药理学研究,内源性大麻素2-花生四烯酸甘油酯(2-AG)被认为是神经系统中的一种关键逆行介质。在此,我们通过基于活性的竞争性蛋白质谱分析表明,DAGL-α/β抑制剂四氢脂抑素(THL)和RHC80267可阻断多种脑丝氨酸水解酶,其效力等于或大于它们对DAGL酶的抑制活性。有趣的是,观察到THL和RHC80267的靶点谱有最小程度的重叠,这表明用这两种药物观察到的药理作用可能被视为DAGL依赖性事件的良好初步证据。
