Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1 ), is a G protein-coupled cannabinoid receptor that in humans is encoded by the CNR1 gene .[ 5] And discovered, by determination and characterization in 1988,[ 6] and cloned in 1990 for the first time.[ 7] [ 8] [ 9] The human CB1 receptor is expressed in the peripheral nervous system and central nervous system .[ 5] It is activated by endogenous cannabinoids[ 10] called endocannabinoids , a group of retrograde neurotransmitters that include lipids, such as anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol ; plant phytocannabinoids , such as docosatetraenoylethanolamide found in wild daga , the compound tetrahydrocannabinol which is an active constituent of the psychoactive drug cannabis ; and synthetic analogs of tetrahydrocannabinol . CB1 is antagonized by the phytocannabinoid tetrahydrocannabivarin at low doses and at higher doses, it activate the CB1 receptor as an agonist , but with less potency than tetrahydrocannabinol.[ 11] [ 12] [ 13]
The primary endogenous agonist of the human CB1 receptor is anandamide .[ 5]
