Cannabinoid receptor-specific mechanisms to alleviate pain in sickle cell anemia via inhibition of mast cell activation and neurogenic inflammation

open access: yesHaematologica, 2016
Sickle cell anemia is a manifestation of a single point mutation in hemoglobin, but inflammation and pain are the insignia of this disease which can start in infancy and continue throughout life.

Actions of N-arachidonyl-glycine in a rat inflammatory pain model

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2007
Background While cannabinoid receptor agonists have analgesic activity in inflammatory pain states they produce a range of side effects. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the arachidonic acid-amino acid conjugate, N-arachidonyl-glycine (NA-glycine)

Mapping the Cerebral Organoid Landscape: A Systematic Review of Preclinical 3D Models in Neuroscience

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Cerebral organoids are transforming brain research, yet the field remains fragmented. This comprehensive systematic review maps 738 studies published between 2014 and 2024 to uncover trends, gaps, and opportunities across neuroscience. Introducing OrganoidMap—an interactive, open‐access platform to explore and compare models—this work enables ...

The role of cannabinoid agonists and antagonists on folliculogenesis and evolutionary events in the mouse ovary [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences
Objective(s): Cannabinoids, derivatives of Cannabis sativa L., can activate the endocannabinoid system via two endogenous receptors, CB1 and CB2. This system is crucial in regulating folliculogenesis, fertility, and reproductive function.

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

The development and therapeutic potential of classical and next-generation cannabinoid ligands

open access: yesPharmacological Research
The endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex network that plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, and its modulation through cannabinoid ligands has garnered significant interest in pharmacological research. Cannabinoid receptors,

The endocannabinoid/cannabinoid receptor 2 system protects against cisplatin-induced hearing loss [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of cannabinoid 2 receptor (CB2R) in the rat cochlea which was induced by cisplatin. In an organ of Corti-derived cell culture model, it was also shown that an agonist of the CB2R protected these cells ...
