Description
An arachidonoyl amino acid and CB1 receptor agonist (Ki = 250 nM in rat brain membranes, which highly express CB1 receptors); selective for CB1 over CB2 receptors (Ki = >12,000 nM in rat spleen membranes, which highly express CB2 receptors); induces intracellular calcium mobilization in N18TG2 neuroblastoma cells (EC50 = 0.7 µM); inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells (IC50 = 0.25 µM); induces hypothermia, catalepsy, hypolocomotion, and analgesia in mice at 10 mg/kg
