Cannabinoids and drug–drug pharmacokinetic interactions: Deciphering the risks

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The relationship between cannabinoids and mental health has become a major focus of scientific inquiry and public discourse. Cannabinoids are diverse chemical compounds from the Cannabis species that have been explored for their therapeutic applications in treating chronic pain, psychiatric and neurological conditions, such as depression, schizophrenia,

Type 1 Cannabinoid Receptor Ligands Display Functional Selectivity in a Cell Culture Model of Striatal Medium Spiny Projection Neurons*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2014
Background: To understand the differential response to cannabinoids, we examined the functional selectivity of type 1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1) agonists in a cell model of striatal neurons.

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Cannabidiol binding and negative allosteric modulation at the cannabinoid type 1 receptor in the presence of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol: An In Silico study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Recent evidence has raised in discussion the possibility that cannabidiol can act as a negative allosteric modulator of the cannabinoid type 1 receptor. Here we have used computational methods to study the modulation exerted by cannabidiol on the effects

Cannabinoid Receptors and the Endocannabinoid System: Signaling and Function in the Central Nervous System

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
The biological effects of cannabinoids, the major constituents of the ancient medicinal plant Cannabis sativa (marijuana) are mediated by two members of the G-protein coupled receptor family, cannabinoid receptors 1 (CB1R) and 2.

On the role of cannabinoid CB1- and µ-opioid receptors in nicotine-induced motor impulsivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
Previous studies using a rat 5-choice serial reaction time task (5-CSRTT) have established a critical role for dopamine D2 receptors in regulating increments in motor impulsivity induced by acute administration of the psychostimulant drugs amphetamine ...

Clinical Study to Evaluate Drug Interactions of Cannabidiol with Citalopram and Morphine in Healthy Adults

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant bioactive cannabinoids. Research has demonstrated CBD’s ability to inhibit metabolic enzymes like cytochrome P450 (CYP) and UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase (UGT), potentially leading to drug interactions. However, clinical knowledge gaps remain, particularly with regard to drugs that are more commonly taken by ...

Cannabinoids Regulate the Diameter of Pericyte-Containing Retinal Capillaries in Rats

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017
Background/Aims: Cannabinoids are vasoactive substances that act as key regulators of arterial tone in the blood vessels supplying peripheral tissues and the central nervous system.
