Scientific Background: | The cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 are GPCRs named for their signaling function in response to cannabinoid drugs such as Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta9-THC). In addition to Delta9-THC and its synthetic analogs, CB1 and CB2 receptors are bound by endogenous eicosanoid ligands (e.g. anandamide), and signal via Gi/o alpha subunits to regulate adenylyl cyclase activity (generally inhibitory), ion channel activation, intracellular Ca2+ levels, nitric oxide synthase activation, and immediate early gene expression. CB1 and CB2 signals in turn regulate neurological and immunological functions such as inhibition of neurotransmitter release and immune cell migration, antigen processing, and cytokine production. |

Western blot analysis: MW marker (1) and 10µg rat brain extract (2) probed with Cannabinoid Receptor (CB2) pAb at 4µg/ml.
Membrane ELISA: Lewis rat spleen membranes (5µg/well) were treated with 1 μM concentrations of agonist (Δ9-THC) and probed with Cannabinoid Receptor (CB2) pAb (1:25 to 1:200 of a 0.1µg/μl stock solution) by ELISA. Data from vehicle treated cells were taken as 100%. Results are the mean ± SEM (n=2).
