Bioactivity | Virodhamine TFA is an endocannabinoid, it regulates neurotransmission by activating the cannabinoid (CB) receptors. Virodhamine is an antagonist of CB1 receptor and an agonist of CB2 receptor. Virodhamine TFA induces megakaryocytic differentiation by triggering MAPK signaling and ROS production. Virodhamine TFA can be used for the research of various neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases[1][2]. |
