    Product Description

    N-Oleoyl alanine is a natural N-acyl amide that has been detected in insect and animal tissues.1,2 Several N-acyl amides are bioactive mediators that modulate G protein-coupled receptors or transient receptor potential channels, although the activity of N-oleoyl alanine has not been delineated.1,2
