N-Oleoylethanolamide (CAT: R023408) is a naturally occurring lipid amide derived from oleic acid and ethanolamine. It functions as an endogenous peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-α) agonist, playing a key role in the regulation of appetite, lipid metabolism, and body weight. OEA is known to suppress food intake, enhance fat utilization, and promote satiety without affecting the central nervous system directly. It is widely studied for its potential in obesity management, metabolic disorders, and neuroprotection. Due to its bioactive properties, N-oleoylethanolamide is used in pharmacological research, nutraceutical development, and investigations into endocannabinoid-like signaling pathways.
