Usage

General Description

2-ARG-OBZL(4-NO2) hydrochloride and hydrobromide are chemical compounds used in the field of pharmacology and neuroscience research. These compounds are derivatives of the amino acid arginine and are often utilized as ligands for studying and understanding the function of the endocannabinoid system in the brain. They act as selective inhibitors of the enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), which plays a crucial role in the degradation of the endocannabinoid anandamide. By inhibiting FAAH, 2-ARG-OBZL(4-NO2) hydrochloride and hydrobromide can increase the levels of anandamide in the brain, leading to potential therapeutic effects in conditions such as pain, anxiety, and inflammation. These compounds have shown promise in preclinical studies, making them valuable tools for furthering our understanding of the endocannabinoid system and its potential in drug development.
