Anandamide Inhibits Vascular Smooth Muscle Migration, Endothelial Adhesion Protein Expression and Monocyte Adhesion of Human Coronary Artery Cells

Cells
Endocannabinoids have been shown to play a complex role in the pathophysiology of a number of cardiovascular disorders. In the present study, the effects of the two major endocannabinoids anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) were ...

Early and Divergent Lipid Mediator Remodelling in Fast Versus Slow Skeletal Muscles of Female hSOD1G93A Mice

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle atrophy in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) drives loss of muscle strength, function and quality of life in ALS patients. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) regulates muscle homeostasis via regenerative and metabolic processes, and although ECS alterations have been reported in ALS neural tissues, ECS remodelling ...

Anandamide inhibits metabolism and physiological actions of 2-arachidonoylglycerol in the striatum

, 2008
Of the endocannabinoids (eCBs), anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) havereceived the most study. A functional interaction between these molecules has never been described. Using mouse brain slices, we found that stimulation of metabotropic

Resmetirom Ameliorates Fibrogenesis in Hepatic Stellate Cells via Thyroid Hormone Receptor Alpha‐Fatty‐Acid Amide Hydrolase 1 Signaling Pathway

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
1. Resmetirom attenuates the activation of HSCs induced in in vitro and in vivo models. 2. Resmetirom attenuates the activation of HSCs through its specific action on the thyroid hormone receptor alpha. 3. Resmetirom requires fatty‐acid amide hydrolase 1 to reduce HSC activation. ABSTRACT Resmetirom is a liver‐directed, thyroid hormone receptor β (THRβ)

Embryonic Mediators of Embryo–Uterus Communication, Implantation and Pregnancy

Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Successful reproduction in eutherian mammals requires intimate connections between the embryo and uterus, involving adhesion, attachment and placentation, with or without invasion of the endometrium. The complex dialogue between embryo and uterus involves numerous molecules and pathways.

Detection of Cyclooxygenase-2-Derived Oxygenation Products of the Endogenous Cannabinoid 2‑Arachidonoylglycerol in Mouse Brain

, 2018
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) catalyzes the formation of prostaglandins, which are involved in immune regulation, vascular function, and synaptic signaling. COX-2 also inactivates the endogenous cannabinoid (eCB) 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) via oxygenation ...

Lower circulating endocannabinoid levels in children with autism spectrum disorder

Molecular Autism, 2019
Background The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a major regulator of synaptic plasticity and neuromodulation. Alterations of the ECS have been demonstrated in several animal models of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In some of these models, activating the

Disrupted endocannabinoid signaling contributes to systemic inflammation in acute pancreatitis

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 269, Issue 4-5, Page 462-477, August 2026.
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.
