DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.944502
Abstract: 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… read more here.
