Abstract CB 1 cannabinoid receptor is widely expressed in the central nervous system of animals from late prenatal development to adulthood. Appropriate activation and signaling of CB 1 cannabinoid receptors in cortical interneurons are crucial during perinatal/postnatal ages and adolescence, when long‐lasting changes in brain activity may elicit subsequent appearance of disorders in the adult brain. Here we used an optimized immunoprecipitation protocol based on specific antibodies followed by shot‐gun proteomics to find CB 1 interacting partners in postnatal rat GABAergic cortical neurons in vitro at two different stages of maturation. Besides describing new proteins associated with CB 1 like dihydrolipoyllysine‐residue acetyltransferase component of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (DLAT), fatty acid synthase (FASN), tyrosine 3‐monooxygenase/tryptophan 5‐monooxygenase activation protein zeta (YWHAZ), voltage‐dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1), myosin phosphatase Rho‐interacting protein (MPRIP) or usher syndrome type‐1C protein‐binding protein 1 (USHBP1), we show that the signaling complex of CB 1 is different between maturational stages. Interestingly, the CB 1 signaling complex is enriched at the more immature stage in mitochondrial associated proteins and metabolic molecular functions, whereas at more mature stage, CB 1 complex is increased in maturation and synaptic‐associated proteins. We describe also interacting partners specifically immunoprecipitated with either N‐terminal or C‐terminal CB 1 directed antibodies. Our results highlight new players that may be affected by altered cannabinoid signaling at this critical window of postnatal cortical development.
