Chemical Name: (2E,4E)-N-Isobutyldodeca-2,4-dienamide
Novel cannabinoid CB2 agonist, antiinflammatory
Molecular Weight:
251.41
Purity:
98% by TLC NMR conforms
Form:
White solid
CAS Number:
[24738-51-0]
Formula:
C16H29NO
Application Notes:
Analog of the natural amides occurring in Echinacea which represent a new class of cannabinomimetic compounds. This class of compounds modulates TNFalpha mRNA expression in human monocytes/macrophages via the CB2 receptor.1 Dienamide A2 binds to cannabinoid receptors with greater affinity than endogenous cannabinoids (Ki= ~60 and >1500 nM for CB2 and CB1 respectively)2. It elevates intracellular Ca2+ levels in CB2-positive but not in CB2-negative cells and this effect was blocked by SR144528.2 It significantly inhibits LPS-induced TNFalpha and IL-1beta expression in a CB2-independent manner.2
