Product Description
Analog of anandamide (Prod. No. ALX-340-029). Potentiates the activity of endogenous anandamide by blocking its re-uptake into presynaptic membranes. Activates TRPV1 (EC50=0.04µM) at concentrations lower than those required to inhibit anandamide transport into the cell (neuronal (C6 glioma cells): IC50=10µM; non-neuronal (rat RBL-2H3 cells): IC50=11µM). Low affinity to FAAH (IC50=5.9µM), to CB1 receptor (IC50=1.76µM) and to CB2 receptor (IC50>1µM).
