Cannabinoid receptors in systemic sclerosis. Cannabinoid (CB) receptors are present in the earliest stages of embryogenesis where they coordinate cell proliferation and differentiation. In adults, type 1 (CB1) receptors are primarily expressed in the brain while type 2 (CB2) receptors are expressed in many tissue types that are derived from all three germ layers.
