Interestingly, a similar decrease of anandamide as a result of increased FAAH activity was recently found in the paw skin in bone cancer bearing mice [12]. | |||||||||||||||

|
Collectively, these studies promote FAAH as a central component of FAA signaling pathways, especially those mediated by the endocannabinoid anandamide, and suggest that this enzyme may represent an attractive pharmaceutical target for the treatment of pain and related neurophysiological disorders. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
These results indicate that the blockade of anandamide uptake observed with LY2183240 may be due primarily to the inactivation of FAAH, providing further evidence that this enzyme serves as a metabolic driving force that promotes the diffusion of anandamide into cells. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
LY2183240 inactivates FAAH by carbamylation of the enzyme's serine nucleophile. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Although the mechanisms behind these effects remain to be determined, our study clearly shows that the antinociceptive effect of acetaminophen at an oral dose of 200 mg/kg is independent of COX, but dependent on both FAAH and TRPV1.
