Abstract

The G-protein-coupled central cannabinoid receptor (CB1) has been shown to be functionally associated with several biological responses including inhibition of adenylate cyclase, modulation of ion channels and induction of the immediate-early gene Krox-24. Using stably transfected Chinese Hamster Ovary cells expressing human CB1 we show here that cannabinoid treatment induces both phosphorylation and activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases, and that these effects are inhibited by SR 141716A, a selective CB1 antagonist. The two p42 and p44 kDa MAP kinases are activated in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The rank order of potency for the activation of MAP kinases with various cannabinoid agonists is CP-55940 > delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol > WIN 55212.2, in agreement with the pharmacological profile of CB1. The activation of MAP kinases is blocked by pertussis toxin but not by treatment with hydrolysis-resistant cyclic AMP analogues. This suggests that the signal transduction pathway between CB1 and MAP kinases involves a pertussis-toxin-sensitive GTP-binding protein and is independent of cyclic AMP metabolism. This coupling of CB1 subtype and mitogenic signal pathway, also observed in the human astrocytoma cell line U373 MG, may explain the mechanism of action underlying cannabinoid-induced Krox-24 induction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
