CBD displaces [3H]SR141716A binding with low affinity and lacks
agonist effects in [35S]GTPγS binding assays in
cortical membranes. A, representative competition curves for the CB receptor
agonist WIN55,212-2, the selective CB1 receptor antagonist AM251,
and CBD against 1 nM [3H]SR141716A (a selective CB1 receptor
antagonist) binding to cortical membranes. Points are means ±
S.E.M. of triplicate points. B, agonist-binding curves for the CB receptor
agonist WIN55,212-2, the selective CB1 receptor antagonist AM251,
and CBD stimulation of [35S]GTPγS binding to cortical
membranes. Points are means ± S.E.M. of triplicate points from
three separate experiments.
