JZL184 is an irreversibleinhibitor formonoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), the primaryenzyme responsible for degrading theendocannabinoid2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG).[1] It displays high selectivity for MAGL over otherbrainserine hydrolases, including theanandamide-degrading enzymefatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), thereby making it a useful tool for studying the effects of endogenous2-AG signaling,in vivo. Administration of JZL184 to mice was reported to cause dramatic elevation of brain2-AG leading to severalcannabinoid-related behavioral effects.
