Non-canonical type 1 cannabinoid receptor signaling regulates night visual processing in the inner rat retina

Summary: Type 1 cannabinoid receptors (CB1Rs) are expressed in major retinal neurons within the rod-pathway suggesting a role in regulating night visual processing, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Using acute rat retinal slices, we show that CB1R activation reduces glutamate...
