The Effects of Vitamin B in Depression.

abstract：:The discovery of cannabinoid receptors at the beginning of the 1990s, CB1 cloned in 1990 and CB2 cloned in 1993, and the availability of selective and potent cannabimimetics could only be justified by the existence of endogenous ligands that are capable of binding to them. Thus, the characterisation and cloning of the...
