ACTIVE MOIETY
Key results: VSN16 relaxed mesenteric arteries in an endothelium-dependent manner. The vasorelaxation was antagonized by high concentrations of the classical cannabinoid antagonists, rimonabant and AM 251, as well as by O-1918, an antagonist at the abnormal-cannabidiol receptor but not at CB1 or CB2 receptors. It did not affect (3H)CP55,940 binding to CB1 receptors in rat cerebellum. The vasorelaxation was not pertussis toxin-sensitive but was reduced by inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis, Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels (KCa) and TRPV1 receptors. In conscious rats VSN16 transiently increased blood pressure and caused a longer-lasting increase in mesenteric vascular conductance. Structure-activity studies on vasorelaxation showed a stringent interaction with the target receptor. Conclusions and implications: VSN16 is an agonist at a novel cannabinoid receptor of the vasculature. It acts on the endothelium to release nitric oxide and activate KCa and TRPV1. As it is water-soluble it might be useful in bringing about peripheral cannabinoid-like effects without accompanying central or severe cardiovascular responses.
