2-Linoleoyl glycerol
Based on 1 Customer Validation
2-Linoleoyl glycerol (2-Monolinolein) is a partial CB1 receptor agonist with a pEC50 of 4.781. 2-Linoleoyl glycerol activates the hCB1 receptor. 2-Linoleoyl glycerol does not induce an increase in intracellular free Ca2+. 2-Linoleoyl glycerol can be used in the research of neurological disorders.

CB1R 4.781 (pEC50) |
In Vitro
2-Linoleoyl glycerol (1-50 μM; 4 h) acts as a low-affinity partial agonist of the CB1 receptor in Tango CNR1-bla U2OS cells, with a pEC50 value of 4.781. Its CB1-dependent activity is potentiated by JZL195 and completely inhibited by AM251[1].
2-Linoleoyl glycerol (10 μM) does not induce an increase in intracellular free calcium levels in NG108-15 cells[2].

Ca2+ Staining Technique
Ca2+ staining is an experimental technique that utilizes specific fluorescent probes (such as Fluo-4 AM, Fura-2, etc.) to qualitatively or quantitatively detect dynamic changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations; this is achieved by monitoring the changes in fluorescent signals generated when these probes bind to free intracellular calcium ions. The underlying principle relies primarily on the presence of chelating groups within the probe's molecular structure that possess high affinity for calcium ions.
