Application

CP-55940 has been used as a cannabinoid agonists in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) expressing cannabinoid receptor 2(CB2).

Biochem/physiol Actions

CP-55940 is a nonclassical cannabinoids (NCCs), which lack the tetrahydropyran ring. CP-55940, a derivative of CP-47,497 is enantioselective. Due to its amphipathic nature, CP-55940 tethers in biological membrane making it favourable for the cannabinoid receptor interaction. CP-55940 belongs to the cyclohexylphenol category and modulates the brain lipidome leading to dysregulation especially during adolescence. It inhibits capsaicin-evoked sensitization of nociceptive and spinal dorsal horn neurons.
CP-55940 is a selective cannabinoid receptor agonist.
