| Targets |
SCH-336 targets the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2), a G protein-coupled receptor primarily expressed on immune cells, including B cells, natural killer cells, and monocytes. CB2 is involved in the modulation of immune responses and inflammation. SCH-336 acts as an inverse agonist at CB2, meaning it stabilizes the receptor in an inactive conformation and reduces constitutive receptor activity. The compound exhibits a Ki of 1.8 nM and an EC50 of 2 nM for CB2, with 100-fold selectivity over the CB1 receptor. This selectivity is important for minimizing central nervous system effects associated with CB1 modulation.

| ln Vitro |
SCH 336 (Sch.336) (0-10 µM) decreases GTPγS binding to membranes containing human CB2, EC50 At 2 nM, and diminishes the efficacy of CB1-containing membranes, with an EC50 of 200 nM[1]. It competes with [3H]CP55,940 for binding to human CB2 on Sf9 cell membranes, Ki 1.8 nM. With an IC50 of 34 nM, SCH 336 prevents BaF3/CB2 from migrating to 100 nM 2-AG[1].
In vitro, SCH-336 acts as a potent and selective inverse agonist at the CB2 receptor. It binds to CB2 with high affinity (Ki = 1.8 nM) and shows 100-fold selectivity over CB1. SCH-336 inhibits BaF3/CB2 cell migration, demonstrating its ability to modulate CB2-mediated cellular functions. The compound has also been shown to increase forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation in CHO cells expressing human CB2 receptors, consistent with inverse agonist activity at this Gi-coupled receptor. |
| ln Vivo |
SCH 336 (0.02, 0.2, 2.0 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection) strongly slows leukocyte migration [1].
In vivo, SCH-336 has demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects in animal models. It significantly inhibits leukocyte migration in vivo and blocks ovalbumin-induced pulmonary eosinophilia in mice. These effects are consistent with the role of CB2 in modulating immune cell trafficking and inflammatory responses. The compound is orally active, making it suitable for in vivo administration. SCH-336 is used to study the therapeutic potential of CB2 modulation in inflammatory diseases and to elucidate the distinct functions of CB2 compared to CB1. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme/receptor binding (non-cellular) assays for SCH-336 are radioligand binding assays using membrane preparations from cells expressing recombinant human CB2 or CB1 receptors. The compound's binding affinity (Ki) is determined by its ability to displace a labeled CB2 ligand such as [3H]CP-55,940 from the receptor. Competition binding assays are performed to calculate the Ki value. Selectivity is confirmed by testing the compound's binding affinity for CB1 and other related receptors. These assays provide quantitative measures of the compound's potency and selectivity.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for SCH-336 are performed using cell lines expressing recombinant CB2 receptors, such as CHO cells or BaF3 cells. The compound's inverse agonist activity is assessed by measuring its ability to increase forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation, as CB2 receptors are Gi-coupled and their activation inhibits adenylyl cyclase. Additionally, the compound's ability to inhibit cell migration is assessed using transwell migration assays with BaF3/CB2 cells. These assays confirm the functional activity of SCH-336 at CB2.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Female B6D2/F1 mice (HU210) [1]
Doses: 0.02, 0.2, 2.0 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection Experimental Results: Dramatically inhibited the migration of leukocytes into CCL2-soaked gel foam sponges. In vivo animal experiments for SCH-336 have been conducted in mouse models of inflammation. To assess the compound's anti-inflammatory effects, mice are sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin to induce pulmonary eosinophilia, and SCH-336 is administered orally. Eosinophil infiltration into the lung is measured to evaluate the compound's efficacy. Leukocyte migration is also assessed in other models of inflammation. These studies demonstrate the in vivo activity of SCH-336 and support its potential for treating inflammatory diseases. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
SCH-336 has a molecular weight of 539.64 g/mol and a molecular formula of C23H25NO8S3. The compound is orally active. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and bioavailability are not extensively reported in the available literature. However, the compound's efficacy in mouse models following oral administration suggests adequate systemic exposure. SCH-336 is soluble in DMSO and other organic solvents, and its formulation for in vivo studies typically involves standard vehicles for oral or parenteral administration.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
SCH-336 has been evaluated in preclinical studies and has been reported to be well-tolerated at effective doses. No significant toxicity has been reported in the available literature. However, comprehensive toxicology studies would be necessary to fully assess the compound's safety profile for clinical development. As a selective CB2 inverse agonist, SCH-336 is expected to have a more favorable safety profile compared to CB1 modulators, as CB2 is primarily expressed in peripheral tissues and is not associated with central nervous system effects.
