Abstract:
Objective To study the expression and distribution of CB2 in rat skin tissue. Method Immunohistochemistrial technics were employed to study the expression and distribution of CB2 in rat skin tissue. Results CB 2 receptors mostly presented in suprabasal layers of the epidermis and hair follicles in dermis by CB2 like immunoreactivity with a N terminal anti CB2 receptor antibody. The positive expression of CB2 appeared in rat spleen and a negative result occured in liver. Conclusion The CB2 receptors distributed mainly in the rats, epidermis and hair follicles, may involve in some of the dermic physiological and pathological process, such as the communication between central neural system and skin.
