It is not meant to be comprehensive and should be used as a complement to other reliable sources of information. The endocannabinoid system has been implicated in a very broad number of physiological as well as pathophysiological processes including neural development, immune function, inflammation, appetite, metabolism and energy homeostasis, cardiovascular function, digestion, bone development and bone density, synaptic plasticity and learning, pain, reproduction, psychiatric disease, psychomotor behaviour, memory, wake/sleep cycles, and the regulation of stress and emotional state are considered the primary endogenous mediators of cannabinoid signaling, but other endogenous molecules which exert "cannabinoid-like" effects have also been described.

This document should not be construed as expressing conclusions from Health Canada about the appropriate use of cannabis (marihuana) or cannabinoids for medical purposes. These other molecules include 2-arachidonoylglycerol ether (noladin ether), N-arachidonoyl dopamine (NADA), virodhamine, N-homo-γ-linolenoylethanolamine (HEA) and N-docosatetraenoylethanolamine (DEA).
Prepared by Health Canada Date of latest version: February 2013 Following the most recent update to this document (February 2013), a study was published in the Netherlands tracking data obtained from the Dutch medical cannabis program over the years 2003-2010. The prevalence and incidence of medicinal cannabis on prescription in The Netherlands. Molecules such as palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) and oleoylethanolamide (OEA) do not appear to bind to cannabinoid receptors but rather to a specific isozyme belonging to a class of nuclear receptors/transcription factors known as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs).
The study reported that in a population of over 5,000 Dutch patients using cannabis for medical purposes, the average daily dose of dried cannabis (various potencies) used was 0.68 grams per day (range: 0.65 - 0.82 grams per day) (Hazekamp and Heerdink 2013). Anandamide is principally produced by the transfer of arachidonic acid from phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylethanolamine by N-acyltransferase (NAT) to yield N-arachidonoylphosphatidylethanolamine (NAPE).
