Cannabinoids, a group of C21 compounds present in Cannabis sativa L., their carboxylic acids, analogs, and transformation products, are the active ingredients found in hasish and marihuana.
(-)-trans-D9-tetrahydrocannabinol (D9-THC) is the major psychopharmacologically active component of Cannabis.
Cannabis affects cognition and memory, euphoria and sedation, and antinociception (analgesia) without the respiratory depression problems associated with opioid analgesics.
To date, two sub-types of the G-protein coupled cannabinoid receptor, CB1 and CB2, have been identified.
The first brain-derived endogenous cannabinoids, an unsaturated fatty-acid ethanolamide, arachidonylethanolamide (AEA, also called anandamide) was found in brain.
AEA has higher affinity for the CB1 than for the CB2.
Neurons and astrocytes have been found to re-uptake and hydrolyse anandamide rapidly, resulting in the formation of arachidonic acid and ethanolamine.
The uptake mechanism has been shown to be mediated by a saturable, selective, temperature-dependent and Na+-independent transporter.
Anandamide hydrolysis is catalyzed by a membrane-bound amidohydrolase (called anandamide amidohydrolase or fatty acid amide hydrolase, FAAH).
FAAH (rat/mouse/human 579aa; chromosome 1p34-p35; mol wt ~67 kD) sequence analyses suggest a single predicted transmembrane domain at the extreme N-terminus of the enzyme.
