AB-CHMINACA
AB-CHMINACA is a synthetic cannabinoid that was first identified in 2014. It is one of several synthetic cannabinoids that have been identified in products marketed as "herbal incense" or "spice". AB-CHMINACA is a potent agonist of the CB1 receptor and CB2 receptor and is fully substituted for Δ9-THC in rat discrimination studies, while being 16x more potent.
History[edit | edit source]
AB-CHMINACA was first identified in September 2014. It is one of several synthetic cannabinoids to have been identified in products marketed as "herbal incense" or "spice". Synthetic cannabinoids have been produced for over a decade and are commonly used in research. The use of synthetic cannabinoids can be associated with psychosis and physicians are beginning to investigate if some patients with inexplicable psychotic symptoms may have at one point used synthetic cannabinoids.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
AB-CHMINACA is a potent full agonist of the CB1 receptor (Ki = 0.78 nM) and CB2 receptor (Ki = 0.45 nM) and is fully substituted for Δ9-THC in rat discrimination studies, while being 16x more potent. Continuing research might lead to more knowledge about how this substance functions and the extent of its health benefits.
Legal Status[edit | edit source]
As of October 2015 AB-CHMINACA is a Schedule I controlled substance in the United States.
