Chemical structure definitions are available for many Cayman products. See Chemical Structure Database for details.

The endocannabinoids present a rich system of central cannabinoid (CB1), peripheral cannabinoid (CB2), and non-CB receptor-mediated pharmacology that has stimulated research in many fields including memory, weight loss and appetite, neurodegeneration, tumor surveillance, analgesia, and inflammation.1,2 HU-211 is a synthetic terpene-based cannabinoid devoid of CB1 and CB2 agonist activity, thus lacking the psychomotor responses characteristic of Δ9-THC. HU-211 does exhibit the neuroprotective, antioxidant properties of other related compounds like cannabidiol.3 HU-211 also has anti-inflammatory properties derived through inhibition of NF-κB and the resulting decreases in cytokines such as TNFα and IL-6.
