Objective: Overview of current knowledge in the field of the endocannabinoid system with emphasis on the relationships between endocannabinoids and exocannabinoids. The endocannabinoid system consists of cannabinoid receptors 1 and 2, ligands of these receptors, especially two "classical" endocannabinoids N-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide) and 2 ...

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1998
The background knowledge leading to the isolation and identification of anandamide and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol, the principal endocannabinoids is described. The structure-activity relationships of these lipid derivatives are summarized. Selected biochemical and pharmacological topics in this field are discussed, the main ones being levels of ...

Essays in Biochemistry, 2020
Abstract Thirty years ago, the discovery of a cannabinoid (CB) receptor that interacts with the psychoactive compound in Cannabis led to the identification of anandamide, an endogenous receptor ligand or endocannabinoid. Research on endocannabinoids has since exploded, and additional receptors along with their lipid mediators and ...

From endocannabinoid profiling to ‘endocannabinoid therapeutics’
Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2009The discovery of the endocannabinoid signalling system, that is, of cannabinoid receptors, their endogenous ligands, known as endocannabinoids, and of endocannabinoid anabolic and catabolic enzymes, raised several questions regarding the physiopathological role of these mediators. Several of these questions were answered by investigating alterations in

Chemical probes to potently and selectively inhibit endocannabinoid cellular reuptake
The extracellular effects of the endocannabinoids anandamide and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol are terminated by enzymatic hydrolysis after crossing cellular membranes by facilitated diffusion.

Endocannabinoids and Neuroprotection
Science's STKE, 2002Traumatic brain injury (TBI) releases harmful mediators that lead to secondary damage. On the other hand, neuroprotective mediators are also released, and the balance between these classes of mediators determines the final outcome after injury. Recently, it was shown that the endogenous brain cannabinoids anandamide and 2-Arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG ...

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2016
Sleep is regulated by several brain structures, neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. Endocannabinoids (eCBs) are a group of lipids with modulatory activity in the brain and bind mainly to cannabinoid receptors CB1R and CB2R, thereby modulating several brain functions, (memory, mood, food intake, pain perception).

Endocannabinoids and Nutrition
Journal of Neuroendocrinology, 2008The endocannabinoids anandamide (AEA) and 2‐arachidonoylglycerol (2‐AG) are bioactive lipids derived from the n‐6 family of polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential fatty acids. Symptoms of essential fatty acid deficiency in rats – growth retardation, scaly skin, and increased transepidermal water loss – can mainly be attributed to lack of ...

Endocannabinoids and pregnancy
Clinica Chimica Acta, 2010Acylethanolamides such as anandamide (AEA), and monoacylglycerols like 2-arachidonoylglycerol are endocannabinoids that bind to cannabinoid, vanilloid and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors. These compounds, their various receptors, the purported membrane transporter(s), and related enzymes that synthesize and degrade them are collectively ...
