The C terminus of CB1 is also required for desensitization of GIRK activation in AtT20 cells. A, In AtT20 cells stably expressing rat CB1 receptors, 200 nm WIN 55,212-2 activates an inward current that rapidly desensitizes.B, In AtT20 cells stably expressing the CB1 truncation mutant ΔG418, 200 nm WIN 55,212-2 activates an inward current, but this current shows little desensitization.C, Aggregate data showing the rapid desensitization of inward current activated by WIN 55,212-2 in cells expressing rat CB1 (n = 5). D, Aggregate data showing no desensitization of the inward current activated by WIN 55,212-2 in cells expressing the CB1 truncation ΔG418 (n = 10).
