description Product Description
OMDM-2, or (R)-N-oleoyl Tyrosinol, finds its primary application in the field of neuroscience and pharmacology, particularly in the study of the endocannabinoid system. It acts as a selective inhibitor of the enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), which is responsible for breaking down endocannabinoids like anandamide. By inhibiting FAAH, OMDM-2 increases the levels of anandamide in the brain, enhancing its effects on cannabinoid receptors. This makes it a valuable tool in research aimed at understanding the role of endocannabinoids in processes such as pain modulation, mood regulation, and neuroprotection. Additionally, OMDM-2 is used in preclinical studies to explore potential therapeutic applications for conditions like anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, where the endocannabinoid system is implicated. Its ability to modulate endocannabinoid signaling without directly activating cannabinoid receptors makes it a unique compound for investigating the system's physiological and pathological roles.
