    Product Description

    2-arachidonyl glycerol (2-AG) exhibits cannabinoid (CB) agonist activity at the CB1 receptor,1 is an important endogenous monoglyceride species,2 and is thus considered to be the natural ligand for the CB1 receptor. 2-AG can also be metabolized by cyclooxygenase-2 and specific prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) isomerases to form PG 2-glyceryl esters.3 Fluprostenol serinol amide (Flu-SA) is a stable analog of PGF 2-glyceryl ester that has much greater stability. The biological activity of Flu-SA has not yet been determined.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
