Abstract

Cannabinoids are known to downregulate immune response but the role for cannabinoid receptors in cannabinoid-induced immunosuppression is still unclear. To address this question, the interference of CB1 and CB2 receptor antagonists with the inhibition of TNF-alpha production by synthetic cannabinoid WIN 55,212-2 was studied using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in vitro. CB2 (SR 144528) but not CB1 (SR 141716A) receptor antagonist dose dependently interfered with WIN 55,212-2-induced inhibition of TNF-alpha synthesis. Also, WIN 55,212-2 decreased fMLP-induced reactive oxygen species generation in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-primed PBMC. However, the high concentrations of cannabinoid receptor ligands needed to achieve significant effects suggest that the observed effects may be in part cannabinoid receptor independent.
