Cannabicitran (CBTC) is a phytocannabinoid first isolated in 1974 as a trace component of Cannabis sativa . ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]} Structurally related compounds can be found in some other plants. ^{[5] [6]} It is not psychoactive, but was found to reduce intraocular pressure in tests on rabbits, ^[7] which may reflect agonist activity at the NAGly receptor (formally GPR18) that is known to be a target of many structurally related cannabinoids. ^[8]
