LY2183240(Cat No.:I005269)is a selective inhibitor of endocannabinoid transport and degradation, enhancing levels of endogenous cannabinoids like anandamide by inhibiting their cellular uptake and hydrolysis. Primarily researched for its impact on the endocannabinoid system, LY2183240 has shown promise in studies related to pain management, mood regulation, and neuroprotection. By preventing the breakdown of endocannabinoids, it offers potential therapeutic applications for conditions such as chronic pain, inflammation, and anxiety. LY2183240 is valuable in exploring the therapeutic modulation of endocannabinoid pathways and advancing cannabinoid-based pharmacology.
