Background:

N-Arachidonoyl-L-serine-d₈(ARA-S-d₈) contains eight deuterium atoms at the 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, and 15 positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ARA-S by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. Arachidonoyl amides of both amino acids and neurotransmitters such as dopamine have been previously reported in the literature.¹ARA-S is one such recently isolated endocannabinoid with an unusual activity profile. ARA-S does not bind to CB₁and CB₂receptors or vanilloid receptor 1. Like cannabidiol , ARA-S (5 mg/kg) antagonizes the hypotensive effects of a 10 mg/kg IV bolus of abnormal cannabidiol in an anesthetized rat blood pressure model.²However, similar to Abn-CBD, ARA-S relaxes isolated rat mesenteric arteries and abdominal aorta, as well as increases phosphorylation of Akt and MAPK in HUVEC.³The precise mechanisms of action by ARA-S and Abn-DBD in various vascular preparations appears to be different and requires further investigation.
