Since it has a longer side chain, its cannabinoid effects are "far higher than Δ 9-THC itself." Tetrahydrocannabiphorol has a reported binding affinity of 1.2 nM at CB 1, approximately 33 times that of Δ 9-THC (40 nM at CB 1). [4] THCP was studied by Roger Adams as early as 1942. [5]

THC was also co-crystallized with autotaxin, deciphering the binding interface of the complex. These results might explain some of the effects of THC on inflammation and neurological diseases, since autotaxin is responsible of LPA generation, a key lipid mediator involved in numerous diseases and physiological processes.
