A role for monoglyceride lipase in 2-arachidonoylglycerol inactivation [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry and Physics of Lipids, 2002
2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) is a naturally occurring monoglyceride that activates cannabinoid receptors and meets several key requisites of an endogenous cannabinoid substance. It is present in the brain (where its levels are 170-folds higher than those of anandamide), is produced by neurons in an activity- and calcium-dependent manner, and is ...

2-Arachidonoylglycerol and the cannabinoid receptors

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, 2000
2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) is a unique molecular species of monoacylglycerol isolated from rat brain and canine gut as an endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligand (Sugiura, T., Kondo, S., Sukagawa, A., Nakane, S., Shinoda, A., Itoh, K., Yamashita, A., Waku, K., 1995.

Biosynthesis and degradation of the endocannabinoid 2‐arachidonoylglycerol

BioFactors, 2010
Abstract2‐Arachidonoylglycerol (2‐AG) is a monoacylglycerol (MAG) molecule containing an esterified arachidonic acid chain at sn‐2 position of the glycerol backbone. Together with structurally similar N‐arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide), 2‐AG has been extensively studied as an endogenous ligand of cannabinoid receptors (an endocannabinoid) in brain

The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol inhibits endothelial function and repair

International Journal of Cardiology, 2021
Endothelial dysfunction promotes atherogenesis, vascular inflammation, and thrombus formation. Reendothelialization after angioplasty is required in order to prevent stent failure. Previous studies have highlighted the role of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) in murine experimental atherogenesis and in human coronary artery disease. However, the impact of

2-Arachidonoylglycerol, a candidate of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor

European Journal of Pharmacology, 2001
We investigated whether 2-arachidonoylglycerol, an endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligand, is involved in acetylcholine- and calcium ionophore A23187-induced relaxations in the presence of N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) and indomethacin, which is considered to be mediated by endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF).

An improved method for the synthesis of 2-arachidonoylglycerol

Process Biochemistry, 2014
Abstract 2-Arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) is an endogenous agonist for cannabinoid receptors and has exhibited various biological activities. In this study, we reported an improved method for the synthesis of 2-AG by enzymatic ethanolysis of arachidonic acid-rich oil.
