Eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide, an omega-3 fatty acid, is one of N-acylethanolamines (NAEs). Eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide is cannabinoid CB1/CB2 receptor agonist. Eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide acts as a metabolic signal. Eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide inhibits dietary restriction (DR)-induced lifespan extension in wild type animals and suppresses lifespan extension in a TOR pathway mutant.

Antiallergic activity in rat RBL2H3 cells assessed as inhibition of DNP-HSA-mediated degranulation by measuring decrease in beta-hexosaminidase activity preincubated for 30 mins followed by DNP-HSA stimulation and measured after 30 mins by 4-nitrophenyl 2

Eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide (EPEA) induces cell death in both LNCaP and PC3 cells (IC50=16.19 μM). EPEA (24 hours) did not result in any significant changes in the G1, S or G2 phases of the cell cycle[1].
