Application

Arachidonoylserotonin is a fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor and transient receptor potential vanilloid-type I (TRPV1) antagonist. Both FAAH and TRPV1 are targets for chronic pain treatment. Arachidonoylserotonin has been used in a study to determine the involvement of endovanilloids in the cortical plastic changes associated with peripheral nerve injury.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Arachidonoylserotonin is a Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase (FAAH) Inhibitor and Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid-Type I (TRPV1) Antagonist. FAAH and TRPV1 are targets for chronic pain treatment. Arachidonylserotonin is a dual target agent and is analgesic in rodents.

The endocannabinoids anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol, and the anandamide-congener, palmitoylethanolamide, are all substrates for the enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase, and are endowed with anti-inflammatory actions exerted via cannabinoid receptors or, in the case of palmitoylethanolamide, also via other targets. We

Given that the pharmacological or genetic inactivation of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) counteracts pain and inflammation, and on the basis of the established involvement of transient receptor potential vanilloid type-1 (TRPV1) channels in inflammatory pain, we tested the capability

Selective blockade of anandamide hydrolysis, through the inhibition of the FAAH enzyme, has anticonvulsant effects, which are mediated by CB1 receptors. Anandamide, however, also activates TRPV1 channels, generally with an opposite outcome on neuronal modulation. Thus, we suggested that the
