So in fibrotic livers you can find cannabinoid receptors that have both anti- and pro-fibrogenic effects. 因此在发生纤维化的肝脏大麻素受体既有抗纤维化作用也有促纤维化作用。
Marijuana happens to resemble the endocannabinoids enough to activate cannabinoid receptors. 碰巧植物大麻所含的成份与内生性大麻素的构造相近,而足以活化大麻受体。
It turns out that there actually cannabinoid receptors in the liver once you have fibrosis. 事实上当发生肝纤维化时肝脏存在大麻素受体。
THC attaches to sites called cannabinoid receptors on nerve cells in the brain, affecting the way those cells work. THC可以和大脑神经细胞当中的四氢大麻醇受体结合,激动这些受体所属的神经细胞,并影响相关的细胞之工作方式。
Blocking these cannabinoid receptors reduces hunger and helps people lose weight, the researchers said. 阻断这些大麻素受体可以减少饥饿感,从而帮助人们减肥。
All three of the drugs work on the cannabinoid receptors in the brain, which are also targeted by marijuana. 这三个药物都作用于大脑中的大麻素受体,其也是大麻的作用靶点。
