N-Stearoyltyrosine (NsTyr), a synthesized anandamide (AEA) analogue, could exert potent neuroprotective effects on cerebral ischemia models both in vivo and in vitro via intervening in multiple injuries. Glutamate, a major excitatory neurotransmitter, plays a critical role during stroke/cerebral isc...
