Structures of AEA and NAGly. A) the endocannabinoid, N-arachidonoyl ethanolamine (anandamide; AEA) and B) the related signaling lipid, N-arachidonoyl glycine (NAGly); C) deuterium-labeled AEA with eight deuteriums on the arachidonic acid moiety; D) deuterium-labeled NAGly with eight deuteriums on the arachidonic acid moiety; E) deuterium-labeled AEA with four deuteriums on the ethanolamine moiety; F) deuterium-labeled NAGly with 2 deuteriums on the glycine moiety.
