Biosynthesis Inhibition: O-5596, a new inhibitor of the biosynthesis of the endocannabinoid, 2-arachidonoylglycerol, was synthesized and found to be potent (IC(50)=100 nM) and selective versus other proteins and enzymes of the endocannabinoid system in vitro and active in vivo at reducing food intake in mice.
