Notes: N-(8Z-Heptadecen-1-yl)-O-(3-pyridylmethyl)carbamate is a synthetic analog of the long-chain fatty acid amides (macamides or macaenes) isolated from the maca (L. meyenii) plant, which are structurally related to cannabinoids.{28386} Nineteen macamides have currently been identified and many are recognized as potent inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and demonstrate selective antiproliferative activity against diverse cancer cell lines.{28386,28387} N-(8Z-Heptadecen-1-yl)-O-(3-pyridylmethyl)carbamate irreversibly inhibits FAAH with an IC50 value of 0.153 µM.{28386}
