Product Overview:
Oleamide is an amide of oleic acid (Item No. 90260) and an agonist of cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptors (Ki = 8.13 µM in a radioligand binding assay).{11820} It is selective for CB1 over CB2 receptors, where it inhibits binding of the CB receptor full agonist CP 55,940 by only 42.5% in HEK-293T cells expressing human CB2 receptors when used at a concentration of 100 µM. Oleamide (10 µM) inhibits cAMP accumulation induced by forskolin (Item No. 11018) in N1E 115 mouse neuroblastoma cells, an effect that is reversed by the CB1 antagonist SR141716A. Oleamide was first identified in the cerebrospinal fluid of sleep-deprived cats, and it has also been detected in the cerebrospinal fluid of rats and humans.{1317} In rats, it induces physiological sleep when administered at doses ranging from 5 to 50 mg and increases food intake when administered into the nucleus accumbens shell, and in group-housed and socially isolated mice, it has anxiolytic-like effects.{1317,42212,42213} Oleamide also induces transactivation of PPARα, PPARβ, and PPARγ and inhibits activity of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) at concentrations in the low micromolar range.{32696}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
