Intrinsic up-regulation of 2-AG favors an area specific neuronal survival in different in vitro models of neuronal damage [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) acts as a retrograde messenger and modulates synaptic signaling e. g. in the hippocampus. 2-AG also exerts neuroprotective effects under pathological situations.
