The video by Kevin Tokoph discusses the degradation pathways of endocannabinoids, specifically anandamide and 2-AG. It explains their retrograde action in regulating neurotransmitter release and details the enzymatic degradation process involving monoacylglycerol lipase and FAAH. The video also highlights the uptake and breakdown of these molecules in presynaptic and postsynaptic cells. The next video will explore endocannabinoids' role in cancer cell growth.
