CB2 Activators

CB2 Activators are chemicals that either directly enhance the functional activity of CB2, a protein known to be involved in immunomodulatory functions. Most of these compounds are selective CB2 agonists, meaning they bind specifically to CB2 receptors and trigger a series of intracellular signaling events that lead to the activation of CB2. This activation can lead to the initiation of CB2's downstream effects, which are largely associated with immunomodulatory functions. Examples of these compounds include JWH-133, AM1241, HU-308, GW842166X, L-759633, and L-759656. These compounds, by binding to CB2, enhance its functional activity and so enhance the immunomodulatory roles of CB2. Other compounds like BAY 59-3074, UR-144, A-836339, AM1714, JTE-907, and LY2828360 also act by binding to CB2 and triggering intracellular signaling events that enhance the functional activity of CB2. These compounds also lead to heightened immunomodulatoryeffects associated with CB2. The binding of these compounds to CB2 triggers signaling cascades that in turn heighten the functional activity of CB2, thereby enhancing the execution of its immunomodulatory roles. The mechanisms of action by which these CB2 activators function underline the key role of CB2 in immune regulation. The selective nature of these compounds suggests specific and targeted activation of CB2, thus illustrating the critical role of CB2 in modulating immune responses.
