Here, we have investigated 12 novel amide analogues of ibuprofen as potential dual-action FAAH/COX inhibitors. N-(3-Bromopyridin-2-yl)-2-(4-isobutylphenyl)propanamide (Ibu-AM68) was found to inhibit the hydrolysis of [3H]anandamide by rat brain homogenates by a reversible, mixed-type mechanism of inhibition with a Ki value of 0.26 µM and an α value of 4.9. At a concentration of 10 µM, the compound did not inhibit the cyclooxygenation of arachidonic acid by either ovine COX-1 or human recombinant COX-2. However, this concentration of Ibu-AM68 greatly reduced the ability of the COX-2 to catalyse the cyclooxygenation of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol. It is concluded that Ibu-AM68 is a dual-acting FAAH/substrate-selective COX inhibitor.Bioactive compounds, synthesized by photosynthetic microorganisms, have drawn the attention of the pharmaceutical field. This study aimed at evaluating synthesis and in vitro antioxidant capacity of phenolic compounds produced by a microalgae species P. boryanum, which was grown in six different culture media (standard BG11, modified BG11/MBG11, standard WC, modified WC, WC*2 and basal). The highest concentrations of biomass (1.75 ± 0.01 g.L-1) and phenolic content (3.18 ± 0.00 mg.g-1) were obtained when P. boryanum was grown in MBG11 and phenolic acids were identified gallic, protocatechuic, chlorogenic, hydroxybenzoic and vanillic ones. All extracts exhibited scavenger activity in the ABTS assay and inhibited peroxidase. However, phenolic compounds from P. boryanum grown in BG11 and MBG11 had the most potent scavenger activity in the DPPH assay. In sum, P. boryanum can be a n
