The enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) is capable of hydrolyzing and inactivating anandamide and other fatty acid amides that act as agonists for the central cannabinoid (CB1) receptor. CAY10570 is a reversible competitive inhibitor of FAAH activity exhibiting an IC50 value of 1.3 µM. CAY10570 has no affinity...

The lipid messenger ceramide is converted to glucosylceramide by glucosylceramide synthase (GCS). In the reverse direction, non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase (GCase), also known as beta-glucosidase 2 (BGD), cleaves the glucosyl moiety from glucosylceramide, liberating ceramide, which can be converted into...

QX-314 is a membrane-impermeant lidocaine derivative that selectively blocks sodium channels on nociceptive neurons when delivered intracellularly via the TRPV1 channel, but is reportedly ineffective with extracellular application. When supplied in combination with 1 µM capsaicin, a TRPV1 receptor agonist, 5 mM...

This vial contains purified rabbit pre-immune IgG conjugated to fluorescein (via isothiocyanate). The antibody exhibits low or no binding to most cells or protein lysates as demonstrated by FC, IF, and WB and thereby acts as an appropriate negative control for polyclonal IgG-FITC.Synonyms: Pre-immune IgG-FITC....
