Cannabinoid system has various physiological roles such as neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity and emotional state regulation in the body. The presence of cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB2), a member of the cannabinoid system, was detected in different regions of the brain. CB2 receptor
We recently demonstrated that the selective cannabinoid receptor antagonist SR 144528 acts as an inverse agonist that blocks constitutive mitogen-activated protein kinase activity coupled to the spontaneous autoactivated peripheral cannabinoid receptor (CB2) in the Chinese hamster ovary cell line
The potent cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN 55,212-2 produces positive shifts in steady-state inactivation of the potassium A current (IA) in rat hippocampal neurons via an adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-, protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent process. This effect is probably mediated by
