Product Introduction:

Description Oleoyl ethanolamide (OEA) is an analog of the endocannabinoid AEA found in brain tissue and in chocolate. It is one of the long chain fatty acid ethanolamides that accumulates rapidly in infarcted tissue, but its biosynthesis is reduced in the intestine of rats following food deprivation. OEA is an endogenous, potent agonist for PPARα, exhibiting an EC50 value of 120 nM in a transactivation assay. Systemic administration of OEA suppresses food intake and reduces weight gain in rats (10 mg/kg intraperitoneally) and PPARα wild-type mice, but not in PPARα knockout mice. These data indicate that OEA regulates food intake by a PPARα-mediated mechanism.

Uses N-Oleoyl Ethanolamide is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPAR-α). N-Oleoyl Ethanolamide generates an intestinal signal that stimulates central dopamine activity establishing a link between caloric-homeostatic and hedonic-homeostatic controllers. Oleoyl Ethanolamide has been implicated as the molecular mechanism associated with gastric bypass success. N-Oleoyl Ethanolamide is a selective GPR55 agonist."
