2-Arachidonyl glyceryl ether (2-AGE, Noladin ether) is a putative endocannabinoid discovered by Lumír Hanuš at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel. Its isolation from porcine brain and its structural elucidation and synthesis were described in 2001.[1]
Detection
The presence of noladin in body tissue is disputed. Although a research group from Teikyo University, Kanagawa, Japan could not detect it in the brains of mice, hamsters, guinea-pigs or pigs,[2] two other research groups successfully detected it in animal tissues.[3] [4]
Pharmacology
Noladin binds with a Ki of 21 nM to the CB1 receptor[1] and 480 nM to the CB2 receptor.[5] It shows agonistic behaviour on both receptors and is a partial agonist for the TRPV1 channel.[6] After binding to CB2 receptors it inhibits adenylate cyclase and stimulates ERK-MAPK and regulates calcium transients.[7]
In comparison to 2-arachidonoyl glycerol, noladin is metabolically more stable resulting in a longer half-life.[8]
It lowers Intraocular pressure,[8] increases the uptake of GABA in the globus pallidus of rats[9] and is neuroprotective by binding to and activation of PPARα.[10]
