There are in the human brain, receptors to which THC connects perfectly. A perfect fit. I believe this is why it is so effective in treating MS. Apparently it "covers over" the gaps in the mylin sheath basically providing a route across the gap along which information can travel ( MS causes the mylin sheath to break down in places) ......I am not a doctor myself so my second hand explanation of the description told to me by a doctor maybe be a little garbled. Anybody out there know about the effects of THC on MS?
