Stearoyl serotonin is a hybrid molecule patterned after arachidonoyl serotonin. Arachidonoyl serotonin is a dual antagonist of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and the transient receptor potential vanilloid-type 1 (TRPV1) channel, reducing both acute and chronic peripheral pain. The effects of replacing the arachidonoyl portion with the saturated 18-carbon stearoyl moiety have not been studied. However, replacement of arachidonate with saturated 11- or 12-carbon fatty acids produces compounds that potently inhibit capsaicin-induced TRPV1 channel activation (IC50=0.76 μM) without blocking FAAH-mediated hydrolysis of arachidonoyl ethanolamine (IC50 > 50 μM). | [Definition]
ChEBI: N-stearoylserotonin is an N-acylserotonin obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of stearic acid with the primary amino group of serotonin. It has been found in the jejunum and ileum of pigs and mice. It is functionally related to an octadecanoic acid. | [Biological Activity]
stearoyl serotonin is a trpv1 antagonist with ic50 value of 0.76 μm for human trpv1 [1].the transient receptor potential vanilloid-type 1 (trpv1) channel is a nonselective cation channel that may be activated by a variety of exogenous and endogenous physical and chemical stimuli. trpv1 is decreased in the injured nerve fibers but increased in those proximal to the site damage. trpv1 is a potential new target for the development of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs [1].stearoyl serotonin is a hybrid molecule patterned after arachidonoyl serotonin. arachidonoyl serotonin is a dual antagonist of trpv1 and fatty acid amide hydrolase (faah) with ic50 values of 0.27 and 8 μm, respectively. arachidonoyl serotonin was highly effective against both acute and chronic peripheral pain [1][2]. in trpv1 and faah assays, stearoyl serotonin inhibited anandamide hydrolysis mediated by faah and capsaicin-induced intracellular ca2+ elevation in hek293 cells overexpressing the human recombinant trpv1 receptor with ic50 values of > 50 μm and 0.76 μm, respectively. however, the effects of replacing the arachidonoyl portion with the saturated 18-carbon stearoyl moiety had not been studied [1]. | [References]
