PLoS ONE, 2016
Salivation to food cues is typically explained in terms of mere stimulus-response links. However, food cues seem to especially increase salivation when food is attractive, suggesting a more complex psychological process.

CB1 and CB2 cannabinoids receptors regulate basal salivation and protein-electrolyte saliva content via modulation of ATPase systems functioning in the acinar cells from submandibular salivary gland

Біологічні студії, 2010
We showed that activation in vivo of СВ1 та СВ2 cannabinoids receptors (СBRs) of submandibular salivary gland with selective agonist WIN 55212-2 caused suppression of basal salivation and alteration of saliva content.
