“…THC appears to function as a ligand at TRPV2, TRPV3, TRPV4, TRPA1, and TRPV8, as reviewed (Muller et al, 2019; Starkus et al, 2019), and the Caribbean spiny lobster ( Panulirus argus ) expresses 17 TRP channels including TRPA and TRPV homologs (Kozma et al, 2020). A further clue is provided by the fact that another cannabis constituent which does not have substantial activity at endocannabinoid receptors (Boggs et al, 2018), cannabidiol (CBD), also had inhibitory effects in Turkanis and Karler (1988), and CBD modulates several THC sensitive TRPs (Muller and Reggio, 2020; Starkus et al, 2019). One apparent concern for this interpretation is that mammal TRPA1 is activated by noxious low, but not high, temperature.…”
