Characterization of Subtype Selective Cannabinoid CB2 Receptor Agonists as Potential Anti-Inflammatory Agents

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Activation of the CB2 receptor has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects without causing psychoactive effects. Previously, we reported that the compound ethyl 2(2-(N-(2,3-dimethylphenyl) phenylsulfonamido)acetamido)benzoate ...

Aminomethanesulfonic acid illuminates the boundary between full and partial agonists of the pentameric glycine receptor

open access: yeseLife, 2022
To clarify the determinants of agonist efficacy in pentameric ligand-gated ion channels, we examined a new compound, aminomethanesulfonic acid (AMS), a molecule intermediate in structure between glycine and taurine.

Identifying Ligand Binding Conformations of the β2-Adrenergic Receptor by Using Its Agonists as Computational Probes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recently available G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) structures and biophysical studies suggest that the difference between the effects of various agonists and antagonists cannot be explained by single structures alone, but rather that the conformational
