Scientific approach and interest in biochemical research of the plants properties came relatively late at the end of XX century with the discovery of our internal endocannabinoid system, explaining first questions that were posed since the beginning – how does the phytocannabinoid impact work in our body? After the discovery of first two endocannabinoid receptors in early 90s, we started to search for possible binding partners, which resulted in gradual identification of basic endocannabinoids such as Anandamide (AEA) and 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG). First biochemical mechanism designs came into life, resulting in clearer view over how our internal endocannabinoid (ECB) system works and how it reacts to external factors like medical cannabis treatment.
