General description

C17:1 anandamide, also known as 10Z-heptadecenoylethanolamide, is a N-acyl ethanolamide derivative of heptadecanoic acid.

Application

C17:1 anandamide or 10Z-heptadecenoylethanolamide has been used as an internal standard in mass spectrometry analysis for the measurement of 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) in brain tissue. It has also been used as a substrate for N-acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA) enzyme.

Cocaine is an addictive drug that acts in brain reward areas. Recent evidence suggests that cocaine stimulates synthesis of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) in midbrain, increasing dopamine neuron activity via disinhibition. Although a mechanism for cocaine-stimulated 2-AG synthesis is known

Fatty acid ethanolamides (FAEs), which include palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) and oleoylethanolamide (OEA), are endogenous agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPAR-α) and important regulators of the inflammatory response. They are degraded in macrophages by the lysosomal cysteine amidase, N-acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA).

Ethanolamides of different long-chain fatty acids constitute a class of endogenous lipid molecules generally called N-acylethanolamines (NAEs). They contain N-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide), N-palmitoylethanolamine, and N-oleoylethanolamine, which receive considerable attention because of their actions as an endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligand (endocannabinoid), an
