The present disclosure is concerned with benzoannulene compounds that are capable of inhibiting a viral infection and methods of treating viral infections such as, for example, chikungunya, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, dengue, influenza, and zika, using these compounds. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

THCA- and CBDA-derivatives can be formulated in pharmaceutical compositions. The derivatives are non-classical cannabinoids that are either agonists or antagonists of the peripheral CB1 and/or CB2 receptors, and are thus useful for CB1 and/or CB2 receptor activation/deactivation, such as for preventing, alleviating, or treating medical conditions that benefit from CB1 and/or CB2 receptor agonist/antagonist treatment.

This invention relates to agents that are inhibitors or activators of variant forms of endogenous proteins and novel methods of identifying such variants. Of particular interest are inhibitors and activators of endogenous protein variants, encoded by genes which have mutated, which variants often arise or are at least first identified as having arisen following exposure to a chemical agent which is known to be an inhibitor or activator of the corresponding unmutated endogenous protein.
