Cannabinoid type 1 receptors transiently silence glutamatergic nerve terminals of cultured cerebellar granule cells.
Cannabinoid receptors are the most abundant G protein-coupled receptors in the brain and they mediate retrograde short-term inhibition of neurotransmitter release, as well as long-term depression of synaptic transmission at many excitatory synapses. The induction of presynaptically silent synapses i...
