Abstract:
:Ligand-based virtual screening led to the discovery of a new class of potent inverse agonists of the human cannabinoid receptor 1, hCB(1), which are selective versus hCB(2). These CB(1) ligands present intriguing departures from a classical CB(1) antagonist pharmacophore. Elements of SAR are discussed in this context.
