Arachidonoyl Ethanolamide

Arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA) is the ethanolamine amide of arachidonic acid, originally isolated from porcine brain. AEA is an endogenous cannabinoid neurotransmitter that binds to both cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and CB2 receptors. AEA has Ki values ranging from 61 to 543 nM for CB1 receptors and from 279 to 1,940 nM for CB2 receptors.Formal Name: N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z-eicosatetraenamide. CAS Number: 94421-68-8.
