Δ-8-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-8-THC, [a] Δ 8-THC) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. [1] It is an isomer of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC, Δ 9-THC), the compound commonly known as THC, with which it co-occurs in hemp; natural quantities of ∆ 8-THC found in hemp are low.
Because the law limited only Δ 9-THC levels, many other cannabinoids are generally considered legal to sell and are widely available in stores and online, including Δ 8-THC, Δ 10-THC, HHC, and THCP, [68] [69] but have not had the same in-depth research that the Δ 9 isomer has on the human body; carrying potential risks in the short- or long ...
Like Δ 9-THC, 11-hydroxy-THC is a partial agonist at the cannabinoid receptor CB 1, but with significantly higher binding affinity (K i = 0.37 nM compared to Δ 9-THC K i = 35 nM). [7] With respect to cAMP inhibition at CB 1 it displays a similar efficacy to that of Δ 9 -THC (EC 50 = 11 nM vs. EC 50 = 5.2 nM, respectively), but a lower ...
Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1), is a G protein-coupled cannabinoid receptor that in humans is encoded by the CNR1 gene. [5] And discovered, by determination and characterization in 1988, [6] and cloned in 1990 for the first time.
THC-O-acetate (THC acetate ester, O-acetyl-THC, THC-O, AcO-THC) is the acetate ester of THC. The term THC-O-acetate and its variations are commonly used for two types of the substance, dependent on which cannabinoid it is synthesized from. The difference between Δ 8-THC and Δ 9-THC is bond placement on the cyclohexene ring. [1]

In dogs, the minimum lethal dose of THC is over 3000 mg/kg. [20] According to The Merck Index, [21] the LD 50 of THC (the dose which causes the death of 50% of individuals) is 1270 mg/kg for male rats and 730 mg/kg for female rats from oral consumption in sesame oil, and 42 mg/kg for rats from inhalation.
