Potent and selective irreversible MAGL inhibitor (IC50 values are 0.25 and 7.4 nM at rMAGL and hMAGL, respectively). Exhibits 389-fold selectivity over hFAAH and exhibits minimal binding at CB receptors (IC50 > 10 μM). Alleviates symptoms in a MS in vivo model. Exhibits analgesic effects in an acute inflammatory pain model in vivo. Ameliorates neuropathic hypersensitivity induced by oxaliplatin . Displays high membrane permeability and brain penetrant.
