(2025). Profiling Allosteric Modulators of CB1R with an Allosteric Fluoroprobe. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 64(20), Article e202421885. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202421885

Allosteric modulation of cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1R) offers a promising alternative to conventional therapeutic approaches using orthosteric ligands (OLs). Currently, CB1R allosteric modulators (AMs) are characterized based on their ability to... Read More about Profiling Allosteric Modulators of CB1R with an Allosteric Fluoroprobe.
