Disrupted endocannabinoid signaling contributes to systemic inflammation in acute pancreatitis

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease that can lead to systemic complications in severe cases. The endocannabinoid system has emerged as a potential modulator of inflammation in AP. We investigated the role of the endocannabinoid 2‐arachidonoylglycerol (2‐AG) and the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 during AP.

In vitro study on the hypoglycemic potential of Nicotiana tabacum leaf extracts

Bangladesh Journal of Pharmacology, 2014
Inhibition of some carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes is one of the modes of action of antihyperglycemic agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase by extracts of N. tabacum leaf.

Statistical Characterization of Food-Derived α-Amylase Inhibitory Peptides: Computer Simulation and Partial Least Squares Regression Analysis

Molecules
α-Amylase inhibitory peptides are used to treat diabetes, but few studies have statistically characterized their interaction with α-amylase. This study performed the molecular docking of α-amylase with inhibitory peptides from published papers.
