Evidence for the intracellular accumulation of anandamide in adiposomes
Anandamide is a lipid messenger that carries out a wide variety of biological functions. It has been suggested that anandamide accumulation involves binding to a saturable cellular component.

Abstract figure legend THC and extract administered to diet‐induced obese mice reduced body weight and fat storage. Extract, but not THC, improved glucose clearance by a mechanism that may include restoring adipoinsular function. Abstract Diet‐induced obesity (DIO) is associated with dysregulated adipoinsular axis and endocannabinoid system (eCBS ...

Anandamide increases swelling and reduces calcium sensitivity of mitochondria
The endocannabinoid anandamide alters mitochondria-dependent signal transduction, thus controlling key cellular events like energy homeostasis and induction of apoptosis.

Endocannabinoids and related N-acylethanolamines: biological activities and metabolism
The plant Cannabis sativa contains cannabinoids represented by Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, which exert psychoactivity and immunomodulation through cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors, respectively, in animal tissues. Arachidonoylethanolamide (also referred to

Anandamide and vanilloid TRPV1 receptors [PDF]
A large body of evidence now exists to substantiate that the endocannabinoid, anandamide, activates TRPV1 receptors. It is a low intrinsic efficacy TRPV1 agonist that behaves as a partial agonist in tissues with a low receptor reserve, while in tissues with high receptor reserve and in circumstances associated with certain disease states, it behaves as

Abstract Background and Purpose Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) engage sites distinct from the orthosteric CB1 cannabinoid receptor binding site. GAT211, a racemic ligand, contains GAT228 (R) and GAT229 (S) enantiomers. Whether enantiomer‐mediated differences in allosteric activation or positive allosteric modulation translate into differences in

Altered Anandamide Degradation in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Anandamide (AEA) metabolism was investigated in 15 drug-free boys with ADHD (aged 6.5-13 years) and 15 age- and gender-matched healthy controls, in a study at Universita Tor Vergata, Rome, Italy.

Among patients hospitalized for major depressive disorder, a positive THC urine drug screen was not independently associated with 30‐day psychiatric readmission or hospital length of stay. These findings suggest that patient factors beyond THC exposure may have a greater influence on hospitalization outcomes.
