Abstract in brief

  • Cannabis sativa is the most widely used illicit drug globally, primarily due to its psychoactive component, THC, which has a wide range of effects on the brain.
  • THC acts mainly as a partial agonist at central cannabinoid CB1 receptors, causing distinctive intoxication and therapeutic effects.
  • Despite its medicinal uses, including treatment for pain and nausea, THC remains controversial because of potential risks like psychosis, cognitive impairment, addiction, and societal debates over its legal status and safety.]

@RobbinsGroupLLC Interesting article Curt. I couldn't find much research on delta-10 THC. Does it have activity at cannabinoid receptors? But I did find this cool figure showing the regioisomers of THC & the location of the double bond from @samuel_b_phd's dark classic: https://t.co/mzqHtjepHH https://t.co/zxalZU1t1B
