1 After a 5-min pre-treatment, HU-210 (0.1 microM) significantly enhanced the effect of several concentrations of capsaicin on [Ca2+]i in HEK-293 cells over-expressing both rat CB1 and human VR1 (CB1-VR1-HEK cells), but not in cells over-expressing only human VR1 (VR1-HEK cells). Capsaicin cannabinoid receptor 1 Homo sapiens
2 Pre-treatment of CB1-VR1-HEK cells with forskolin, an adenylate cyclase activator, enhanced the capsaicin effect on [Ca2+]i. HU-210, which in the same cells inhibits forskolin-induced enhancement of cAMP levels, blocked the stimulatory effect of forskolin on capsaicin. Capsaicin cannabinoid receptor 1 Homo sapiens
3 Pre-treatment of CB1-VR1-HEK cells with forskolin, an adenylate cyclase activator, enhanced the capsaicin effect on [Ca2+]i. HU-210, which in the same cells inhibits forskolin-induced enhancement of cAMP levels, blocked the stimulatory effect of forskolin on capsaicin. Capsaicin cannabinoid receptor 1 Homo sapiens
4 Our data suggest that in cells co-expressing both CB1 and VR1 receptors, pre-treatment with CB1 agonists inhibits or stimulates VR1 gating by capsaicin depending on whether or not cAMP-mediated signalling has been concomitantly activated. Capsaicin cannabinoid receptor 1 Homo sapiens
5 Our data suggest that in cells co-expressing both CB1 and VR1 receptors, pre-treatment with CB1 agonists inhibits or stimulates VR1 gating by capsaicin depending on whether or not cAMP-mediated signalling has been concomitantly activated. Capsaicin cannabinoid receptor 1 Homo sapiens
