DAGLβ inhibition perturbs a lipid network involved in macrophage inflammatory responses
Open accessAbstract
The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) is biosynthesized by diacylglycerol lipases DAGLα and DAGLβ. Chemical probes to perturb DAGLs are needed to characterize endocannabinoid function in biological processes. Here we report a series of 1,2,3-triazole urea inhibitors, along with paired negative-control and activity-based probes, for the functional analysis of DAGLβ in living systems. Optimized inhibitors showed high selectivity for DAGLβ over other serine hydrolases, including DAGLα (∼60-fold selectivity), and the limited off-targets, such as ABHD6, were also inhibited by the negative-control probe. Using these agents and Daglb(-/-) mice, we show that DAGLβ inactivation lowers 2-AG, as well as arachidonic acid and eicosanoids, in mouse peritoneal macrophages in a manner that is distinct and complementary to disruption of cytosolic phospholipase-A2. We observed a corresponding reduction in lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis factor-α release. These findings indicate that DAGLβ is a key metabolic hub within a lipid network that regulates proinflammatory responses in macrophages.

In the citing paper
“Specifically, DAGL-β is highly expressed in macrophages, and its blockade leads to reduced levels of 2-AG, arachidonic acid, and a variety of proinflammatory arachidonic acid metabolites and proinflammatory cytokines in these cells (Hsu et al, 2012).”

In the citing paper
“The observation that selective inhibition of DAGL-β, the biosynthetic enzyme expressed predominantly on macrophages and microglia, reduces pro-inflammatory mediators (Hsu et al, 2012), and reverses nociceptive behavior in a mouse model of CCI (Wilkerson et al, 2016a) appears to be at odds with the antinociceptive effects of MAGL inhibitors in this same model.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
