Allele-specific Differences in Activity of a Novel Cannabinoid Receptor 1 (CNR1) Gene Intronic Enhancer in Hypothalamus, Dorsal Root Ganglia, and Hippocampus

Polymorphisms within intron 2 of the CNR1 gene, which encodes cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB(1)), have been associated with addiction, obesity, and brain volume deficits. We used comparative genomics to identify a polymorphic (rs9444584-C/T) sequence (ECR1) in intron 2 of the CNR1 gene that had been con...
