Anandamide, a compound originally isolated from porcine brain extracts, is known to interact with canabinoid receptors 1 and 2 in the brain (120, 159). However, anandamide interacts with numerous other receptors, including voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (357), voltage-gated K+ channels (293), 5-HT3 receptors (358), kainate receptors (3), and nAChRs (356). At nanomolar concentrations, anandamine blocks noncompetitively and voltage independently the activation of alpha7 nAChRs ectopically expressed in Xenopus oocytes (356). It also inhibits the activity of alpha4beta2 nAChRs expressed in SH-EP1 cells (443).
