Pathways and gene networks mediating the regulatory effects of cannabidiol, a nonpsychoactive cannabinoid, in autoimmune T cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundOur previous studies showed that the non-psychoactive cannabinoid, cannabidiol (CBD), ameliorates the clinical symptoms in mouse myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)35-55-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model of multiple ...

Type 1 cannabinoid receptor modulates water deprivation-induced homeostatic responses [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2015
The present study investigated the type 1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1R) as a potential candidate to mediate the homeostatic responses triggered by 24 h of water deprivation, which constitutes primarily a hydroelectrolytic challenge and also significantly impacts energy homeostasis.

Gray Matter Volume Loss in Parkinson's Disease Psychosis and Cannabinoid Receptor Gene Expression in the Brain

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Serotonergic and dopaminergic pathways are implicated in Parkinson's disease psychosis (PDP), but preliminary evidence also implicates the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Objectives We examined the association of gray matter volume loss in PDP patients with brain expression of the genes coding for CB1 (cannabinoid type 1) and CB2 ...

Species-specific susceptibility to cannabis-induced convulsions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background and Purpose. Numerous claims are made for cannabis' therapeutic utility upon human seizures, but concerns persist about risks. A potential confounder is the presence of both 9-tetrahydrocannabinol ( 9-THC), variously reported to be pro- and ...

Exploration of the Phytochemical and Antidiabetic Properties of Teucrium polium: A Natural Asset for Type 2 Diabetes Management

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Teucrium polium shows antidiabetic activity with its phytochemical composition and biological activities. The essential oil is rich in carvacrol, thymol, γ‐terpinene, and o‐cymene, while the aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts are characterized by poliumoside, verbascoside, isorhamnetin‐3‐O‐rutinoside, and apigenin‐7‐rutinoside. Antioxidant activity is

Determination of the Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor’s Positive Allosteric Modulator Binding Site through Mutagenesis Studies

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the cannabinoid CB1 receptor (CB1) offer potential therapeutic advantages in the treatment of neuropathic pain and addiction by avoiding the adverse effects associated with orthosteric CB1 activation.

Cannabinoid Receptor 2 Suppresses Leukocyte Inflammatory Migration by Modulating the JNK/c-Jun/Alox5 Pathway*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Background: The role of cannabinoid receptor type 2 (Cnr2) in regulating immune function had been widely investigated, but the mechanism is not fully understood. Results: Cnr2 activation down-regulates 5-lipoxygenase (Alox5) expression by suppressing the
