Comment: Sch.336 is a novel inverse agonist that is selective for the cannabinoid receptor CB2 that is expressed on peripheral immune cells [1-2]. It is suitable for in vitro and in vivo studies.
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Immunopharmacology Comments |
Sch.336 is orally active in in vivo rodent leukocyte trafficking models and inhibits ovalbumin-induced lung eosinophilia (an asthma model) in mice [2]. Selective CB2 receptor inverse agonists are being studied as novel anti-inflammatory agents, especially for diseases characterised by aberrant leukocyte recruitment. |
