Travoprost is the Alcon trade name for fluprostenol isopropyl ester, an F-series prostaglandin analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug. Fluprostenol isopropyl ester is a prodrug which is converted by esterase enzymatic activity in the cornea to yield the corresponding…

NAM is a potent, irreversible inhibitor of MAGL or MAGL-like activity in rat cerebellar membranes, exhibiting an IC50 value of 140 nM. Inhibition of MAGL by the sulfhydryl-reactive maleimide group of NAM suggests a critical cysteine residue is present in the substrate-binding site of the enzyme.
