Human, mouse or rat cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) expressing HEK293 cells.
Cannabinoid receptors are located throughout the body and are part of the endocannabinoid system. A major function of CB1 cannabinoid receptors expressed on neurons is to inhibit neurotransmission, often through a retrograde signaling system. CB1 receptors are involved in a variety of physiological processes including regulation of appetite, pain-sensation, mood, and memory. While CB1 cannabinoid receptors are one of the most abundant G protein-coupled receptors in the brain, they also found in many non-neuronal tissues including the liver, adipocytes, and some immune cells.
