BACKGROUND
The endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) plays a crucial role in multiple physiological processes in the central nervous system and in the periphery. The discovery that selective cannabinoid (CB) receptor agonists exert a potent inhibitory action on gastrointestinal (GI) motility and pain
Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta9-THC) and (-)-cannabidiol are major constituents of the Cannabis sativa plant with different pharmacological profiles: (-)-Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol, but not (-)-cannabidiol, activates cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors and induces psychoactive and peripheral
The cannabinoid CB(1) and CB(2) receptors belong to the Class A, rhodopsin-like family of G protein-coupled receptors. Antagonists for each receptor sub-type, as well as four structural classes of agonists that bind to both receptors, have been identified. An extensive amount of SAR has been
We have studied the effects of the cannabinoid receptor agonists (R)-(+)[2,3-dihydro-5-methyl-3-(4-morpholinylmethyl)pyrrolo[1,2, 3-de]-1,4-benzoxazin-6-yl]-1-naphthalenylmethanone (WIN 55,212-2, 0. 3-5 mg/kg, i.p.) and (-)-cis-3-[2-hydroxy-4-(1,
Ten new delta6a,10a-THC analogs with arylalkyl side chains, one with a dimethylaminoalkyl side chain, and six heterocyclic delta6a,10a-THC analogs [8-substituted 5,5-dimethyl-10-hydroxy-2-(2-propynyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5H-[1]benzo-pyrano[4,3-c]pyridines] were prepared. They showed pharmacological
There is significant interest among patients and providers in using cannabis (marijuana) and its derivatives to treat a number of chronic illnesses, including inflammatory bowel disease. Despite the Schedule I classification of cannabis by the federal government, state governments have sought ways
In traditional medicine, Cannabis sativa has been prescribed for a variety of diseases. Today, the plant is largely known for its recreational purpose, but it may find a way back to what it was originally known for: a herbal remedy. Most of the plant's ingredients, such as Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol,
