Product Description
Noladin ether (2-Arachidonyl glycerol ether) is a stable analog of the endogenous cannabanoid 2-Arachidonylglycerol (2-AG) with selectivity for CB1 receptors. Noladin ether is a CB1 agonist. The Ki values for CB1 vs CB2 receptors are 21.2 nM and 3 mM, respectively. Noladin ether induces sedation and has modest antinociceptive activity in vivo, and reduces inter ocular pressure after administration in the eye. 2-Arachidonyl glycerol ether (2-AG ether) is supplied as a solution in ethanol. To change the solvent, simply evaporate the ethanol under a gentle stream of nitrogen and immediately add the solvent of choice. Solvents such as DMSO and dimethyl formamide purged with an inert gas can be used.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as endocannabinoids. These are arachidonic acid derivatives containing either an N-acetylethanolamine(type 1) or a glycerol(types 2 and 3) moiety attached to the aliphatic tail.
