Cannabinoid receptor endocannabinoids and enzymes catalyzing their formation and degradation coflectively constitute the endocannabinoid system. The potential modulation of this system for therapeutic gain has become a central focus of research during the last decade. Two cannabinoid receptor subtypes (CB1) and CB2) have been identified, which have variable tissue distribution. The CB1 subtype is mainly localised in the CNS and is the subtype that mediates the psychotropic effects of A⁹-THC
