Product Description

Potent and selective inhibitor of anandamide uptake, resistant to fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) hydrolysis. Metabolically stable “reversed” isomer of AM 404 (Prod. No. ALX-340-032).

Product Specific Literature References

Anandamide transport is independent of fatty-acid amide hydrolase activity and is blocked by the hydrolysis-resistant inhibitor AM1172: D. Fegley, et al.; PNAS 101, 8756 (2004) Abstract; Full Text
