Page 190 of 207 RIVM report 650270002 Anandamide dose in cigarettes (12.5 ng/25 cigarettes) compared with the animal TDlo, seems to indicate that the anandamide level in cigarettes is insufficient to exert any acute systemic toxicological effects. Because, no data are available on the inhalation toxicological effect of anandamide, the local pulmonary toxicological effect is unknown. There are no data available on the chemical interaction of anandamide. The anandamide level is affected either by inhibition of the anandamide degrading enzym or by inhibition of the anandamide transport through the cell membrane. The psychoactive cannabinoids have physical dependence properties, but there is inconclusive evidence that endogenous cannabinoids such as anandamide, have physical dependence properties. The anandamide level in cigarettes (12.5 ng/25 cigarettes) seems to be clearly insufficient to have any dependency properties, compared with the anandamide dose used to investigate the dependency properties of anandamide (10 – 100 mg/kg). The anandamide level in cigarettes seems to be insufficient to exert any systemic pharmacological and toxicological effects. Since no data are available on pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic and toxicological effects of anandamide exposure through inhalation, the shortterm and longterm effects of exposure to anandamide through smoking on the respiratory system cannot be established. More studies are needed on: - the determination of anandamide level in cigarette smoke - the determination of pyrolysis/combustion products of anandamide in cigarette smoke - the local (respiratory system) effects of long-term use of anandamide alone and its pyrolysis/combustion products via inhalation.
