Product Data
Biological target:
Linoleylethanolamide is an endocannabinoid agent.
In vitro activity:
In mouse RAW264.7 macrophages, LE (linoleoyl ethanolamide) suppressed the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6. In addition, LE inhibited LPS-induced increases in the levels of cyclooxygenase enzyme-2 and prostaglandin E(2), which are indicators of inflammation. Reference: Eur J Pharmacol. 2013 Jan 15;699(1-3):6-13. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23201070/
In vivo activity:
The neuroprotective properties of two NAEs (N-acylethanolamines) were measured in rats subjected to MCAO followed by 24 h reperfusion. Pretreatment with NAE 18:2 (linoleylethanolamide) prior to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury resulted in both significantly reduced cortical infarct volume and improved functional outcome as determined using the neurological deficit score.
