Abstract:
To date, despite extensive investigations, full understanding of the endocannabinoid system remains elusive; in particular, anandamide cellular uptake is a current controversial topic. An iodo-arylazido probe was synthesized from commercially available azelaic acid monomethyl ester, in order to shed light on the anandamide transport process.
