CB2 agonists
CB2 agonists are compounds that activate CB2 receptors, part of the body's endocannabinoid system involved in regulating immune response and inflammation. Found mainly in immune cells, activating CB2 receptors can reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and modulate immune functions without causing the psychoactive effects associated with CB1 activation in the brain. These agonists are being researched for potential therapeutic uses in conditions like autoimmune diseases, chronic pain, and inflammatory disorders. In summary, CB2 agonists target the immune-supporting pathways of the endocannabinoid system, offering possible medical benefits without impairing cognitive function.
