HIDE SMILES / InChI
Glyceryl 2-linoleate is a fatty acid derivative. It inhibits monoacylglycerol lipase and fatty acid amide hydrolase activity. Glyceryl 2-linoleate enhanced a 2-Arachidonoyl-glycerol inhibition of tumor necrosis factor alpha production in murine macrophages when applied with 2-Arachidonoyl-glycerol. Initially, it was found that Glyceryl 2-linoleate potentiated the apparent binding of 2-Arachidonoyl-glycerol to cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2. However, later research revealed that in no case do the lipid Glyceryl 2-linoleate acts as entourage compounds for 2-Arachidonoyl-glycerol. Increase in Glyceryl 2-linoleate plasma concentrations was observed in cocaine subjects diagnosed with psychiatric comorbidity.

In Vitro Use Guide
In RBL-2H3 cells was found that without the addition of GLYCERYL 2-LINOLEATE, 2-Arachidonoyl-glycerol (2-Ara-Gl) disappeared from the culture media in a temperature-dependent fashion with a half life at 37C of 6 min. 100 uM of GLYCERYL 2-LINOLEATE prevented this loss of 2-Ara-Gl from the medium. An eight-fold increase of 2-Ara-Gl levels was observed after 30 min incubation.
