Biological Information

Background Information:

Cannabinoid receptors belong to the superfamily of G protein-coupled seven transmembrane proteins. G-protein-coupled receptors constitute one of the major signal transduction systems in eukaryotic cells. Coding sequences for these receptors, in those regions believed to contribute to the agonist-antagonist binding site, are strongly conserved across mammalian species. Cannabinoid CB2 receptors are found primarily in immune tissues.

Clinical Relevance

Therapeutic Area:

Inflammation/Allergy

Adverse / Beneficial Action:

Cannabinoid CB2 receptor agonism may limit angiogenesis as well as induce apoptosis in some types of cancer, inhibit inflammatory pain and the immune system. CB2 receptor antagonism may facilitate mast cell-mediated allergic and inflammatory responses.
