Endogenous fatty acid amide / Antidepressant and anxiety effects / Erucamide is an endogenous fatty acid amide. It was able to ameliorate depression and anxiety-like behaviors in several mouse models. Significantly lowered levels of circulating adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone (CORT) suggesting a mechanism of action involving modulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.
