Newest firstIntracellular Ca2+ regulates insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and is influenced by cannabinoid signaling. However, the hydrophobicity and complex pharmacology of cannabinoid ligands prevent precision receptor targeting, limiting our understanding of their roles in modulating insulin release. Here, we use fluorescent Ca2+ imaging to examine how the light-activatable CB2 receptor agonist azo-HU308 modulates…
Open article record in new tab ↗Photopharmacology is an emerging field in medicinal chemistry that seeks to control the pharmacological effects of target compounds using light. This approach addresses challenges such as limited receptor selectivity by enabling precise spatiotemporal control of therapeutic effects. The light-responsiveness is a central molecular feature used in photopharmacology to modulate the activity of various biological syst…
