Difference between Cannabinoid and Cannabinoid receptor type 1

Cannabinoid vs. Cannabinoid receptor type 1

A cannabinoid is one of a class of diverse chemical compounds that acts on cannabinoid receptors in cells that alter neurotransmitter release in the brain. The cannabinoid type 1 receptor, often abbreviated as CB1, is a G protein-coupled cannabinoid receptor located in the central and peripheral nervous system.
