...…orthosteric ligands, allosteric modulators of CB1 receptors may not produce these undesirable side effects because their efficacy depends on the presence of orthosteric ligands, such as the two major endocannabinoids, anandamide and 2-arachidonylglycerol (2-AG) (Ross, 2007; Wootten et al., 2013)....

...Therefore, the effect ceiling of an allosteric modulator is determined by the endogenous or exogenous orthosteric ligand (Wootten et al., 2013)....

...In contrast, exogenous orthosteric ligands may produce adverse effects through supraphysiological over-activation or downregulation of a receptor (Wootten et al., 2013)....

...An allosteric binding site is a distinct domain from the orthosteric site that can bind to small molecules or other proteins in order to modulate receptor activity (Wootten et al., 2013)....
