Newest firstCannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) is a G protein-coupled receptor that regulates critical physiological processes including pain, appetite, and cognition. Understanding the conformational dynamics of CB1 associated with transitions between inactive and active signaling states is imperative for developing targeted modulators. Using microsecond-level all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, we identified marked differenc…
Open article record in new tab ↗The Sterling Research Group identified pravadoline as an aminoalkylindole (AAI) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain reliever. As drug design progressed, the ability of AAI analogs to block prostaglandin synthesis diminished, and antinociceptive activity was found to result from action at the CB1 cannabinoid receptor, a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) abundant in the brain. Several laboratories applied computati…
Open article record in new tab ↗The main objective of this study is to develop a novel dual-purpose material based on carbon xerogel microspheres (CXMs) that permits the delayed release of cannabidiol (CBD) and the removal of aflatoxin. The CXMs were prepared by the sol-gel method and functionalized with phosphoric acid (CXMP) and melamine (CXMN). The support and the modified materials were characterized by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM),…
Two 3D quantitative structure⁻activity relationships (3D-QSAR) models for predicting Cannabinoid receptor 1 and 2 (CB₁ and CB₂) ligands have been produced by way of creating a practical tool for the drug-design and optimization of CB₁ and CB₂ ligands. A set of 312 molecules have been used to build the model for the CB₁ receptor, and a set of 187 molecules for the CB₂ receptor. All of the molecules were recovered f…
