URB-597(Cat No.:I004008)is a selective inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), an enzyme responsible for breaking down endocannabinoids like anandamide. By inhibiting FAAH, URB-597 increases anandamide levels, enhancing endocannabinoid signaling, which plays a role in reducing pain, inflammation, and anxiety. This compound is widely researched for its potential therapeutic effects in neuropathic pain, mood disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases, given its ability to modulate the endocannabinoid system without psychoactive side effects. URB-597 serves as an important tool in exploring non-psychoactive cannabinoid-based therapies in preclinical studies.
