The anandamide effect on NO/cGMP pathway in human platelets

open access: yes, 2011
In this study the effect of the endocannabinoid anandamide on platelet nitric oxide (NO)/cGMP pathway was investigated. Data report that anandamide in a dose- and time-dependent manner increased NO and cGMP levels and stimulated endothelial nitric oxide ...

Anandamide-Mediated Growth Changes in Physcomitrella patens

open access: yes, 2016
Anandamide (NAE 20:4) or arachidonlyethanolamine (AEA) is the most widely studied N-acylethanolamine (NAE) because it mediates several physiological functions in mammals.

Chemical synthesis, pharmacological characterization, and possible formation in unicellular fungi of 3-hydroxy-anandamide1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
The fungal pathogen Candida albicans transforms arachidonic acid (AA) into 3-hydroxyarachidonic acid [3(R)-HETE], and we investigated if its nonpathogenic and 3(R)-HETE-producing close relative, Dipodascopsis uninucleata, could similarly transform the ...

Phytoestrogens Enhance the Vascular Actions of the Endocannabinoid Anandamide in Mesenteric Beds of Female Rats

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hypertension, 2012
In rat isolated mesenteric beds that were contracted with NA as an in vitro model of the vascular adrenergic hyperactivity that usually precedes the onset of primary hypertension, the oral administration (3 daily doses) of either 10 mg/kg genistein or 20

The regulation of endocannabinoids after neuronal damage and the neuroprotective impact of GPR55 in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Endocannabinoids (eCB) are signaling lipids and became known for their importance in the central nervous system as well as in immune defense. Beneficial effects of eCB are shown in processes of excitotoxic lesion, secondary damage and neuronal plasticity

Vasodilator actions of EDHF and anandamide

open access: yes, 2001
Vasodilator responses to endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) and anandamide in isolated arteries were investigated. A combination of the potassium channel blockers charybdotoxin and apamin inhibits EDHF-mediated relaxations.
