“…One reason for this is that transport assay conditions for 2-AG uptake are greatly hampered by the fact that 2-AG is degraded rapidly by both intracellular and extracellular hydrolases, which are differentially expressed in different cell types (vide infra). To date, several hypothetical models have been proposed and reviewed for AEA uptake (Felder, Dickason-Chesterfield, & Moore, 2006;Yates & Barker, 2009a, 2009b. Due to the difficulty of transport assay handling, differential transport kinetics as a function of concentration, the lack of an identified endocannabinoid membrane transporter (EMT), and the biases of researchers, there is an ongoing thought-provoking debate on the transport mechanism of endocannabinoids across the plasma membrane (Fowler, 2012(Fowler, , 2013Yates & Barker, 2009a, 2009b.…”
