Abstract: (3539 Views)
Synthetic cannabinoids (SC) are a heterogeneous group of substances with a high affinity for cannabinoid receptors. Unlike Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), synthetic cannabinoids are incredibly potent, highly productive, have more affinity for the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1), and cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2), and are designed to accelerate the effects of tetrahydrocannabinol. Also, there is experimental evidence that SCs act on non-cannabinoid receptors, such as the 5-HT2B receptor or dopaminergic receptors.
