Pristimerin, a triterpene that inhibits monoacylglycerol lipase activity, prevents the development of paclitaxel-induced allodynia in mice
Background: Triterpenes such as euphol and pristimerin, which are plant secondary metabolites, were the first to be characterized as monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) inhibitors. MAGL inhibitors alleviate chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CINP) in rodent models. Pristimerin has been shown to have...
