Zusammenfassung
Human cannabinoid receptors 1 (hCB1R) and 2 (hCB2R) are expressed in the CNS and couple to Gi/Go-proteins. The aim of this study was to compare coupling of hCB1R and hCB2R to Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2 in Sf9 insect cells. High-affinity agonist binding at hCB1R, but not at hCB2R, was resistant to guanine nucleotides. HCB1R activated Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2 much more rapidly than hCB2R in the ...
Zusammenfassung
Human cannabinoid receptors 1 (hCB1R) and 2 (hCB2R) are expressed in the CNS and couple to Gi/Go-proteins. The aim of this study was to compare coupling of hCB1R and hCB2R to Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2 in Sf9 insect cells. High-affinity agonist binding at hCB1R, but not at hCB2R, was resistant to guanine nucleotides. HCB1R activated Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2 much more rapidly than hCB2R in the [35S]guanosine 5'-[gamma -thio]triphosphate ([35S]GTPgamma S) binding assay. Moreover, hCB1R exhibited a higher constitutive activity than hCB2R as assessed by the relative inhibitory effects of inverse agonists on [35S]GTPgamma S binding and steady-state high-affinity GTPase activity compared to the stimulatory effects of the hCB1/2R agonist CP 55,940 [(-)-cis-3-[2-hydroxy-4-(1,1-dimethylheptyl)phenyl]-trans-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)cyclohexanol]. Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2 coupled to hCB2R exhibited higher GDP- and GTPgamma S-affinities than Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2 coupled to hCB1R. NaCl effectively reduced constitutive activity of hCB1R but not of hCB2R. Collectively, hCB1R and hCB2R couple differentially to Galpha i2beta 1gamma 2. Moreover, hCB1R exhibits higher constitutive activity than hCB2R. These differences point to distinct functions of hCB1R and hCB2R in the CNS.
