Oleoyl ethanolamide-d2 (OEA-d2) contains two deuterium atoms at the 11 position. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of OEA by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. OEA is an analogue of the endocannabinoid arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA) found in brain tissue and in chocolate.{5291} It is one of the long chain fatty acid ethanolamides that accumulates rapidly in infarcted tissue,{2874} but its biosynthesis is reduced in the intestine of rats following food deprivation.{9302} OEA is an endogenous, potent agonist for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ? (PPAR?), exhibiting an EC50 value of 120 nM in a transactivation assay.{11423} Systemic administration of OEA suppresses food intake and reduces weight gain in rats (10 mg/kg intraperitoneally) and PPAR? wild-type mice, but not in PPAR? knockout mice.{9302,11423} These data indicate that OEA regulates food intake by a PPAR?-mediated mechanism.
