Deskripsi
Endocannabinoids are ligands of cannabinoid receptors and a promising target for pain management. Here, the authors report a class of lipids formed by the epoxidation of N-arachidonoyl dopamine and N-arachidonoyl serotonin by cytochrome P450 epoxygenases, which reciprocally regulate canabinoid receptors and display anti-inflammatory activity.
