In cardiac cells, Plin5/AMPK regulate lipid homeostasis; excess CD36‐mediated uptake drives lipotoxicity, mitochondrial dysfunction, and CVDs (e.g., heart failure). Biomarkers (ApoB/ApoA‐1) and therapies (SGLT2 inhibitors) target this cascade. ABSTRACT Cardiac lipid metabolism is fundamental to myocardial energy homeostasis, with fatty acid oxidation ...

ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle atrophy in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) drives loss of muscle strength, function and quality of life in ALS patients. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) regulates muscle homeostasis via regenerative and metabolic processes, and although ECS alterations have been reported in ALS neural tissues, ECS remodelling ...

Macrophage: Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
Macrophages are sentinel innate immune cells that arise from embryonic precursors and bone marrow monocytes, displaying a functional continuum that transcends the classical M1 (pro‐inflammatory)/M2 (anti‐inflammatory) dichotomy. Under homeostatic conditions, balanced M1/M2 polarization preserves tissue integrity by coordinating immune surveillance ...

1. Resmetirom attenuates the activation of HSCs induced in in vitro and in vivo models. 2. Resmetirom attenuates the activation of HSCs through its specific action on the thyroid hormone receptor alpha. 3. Resmetirom requires fatty‐acid amide hydrolase 1 to reduce HSC activation. ABSTRACT Resmetirom is a liver‐directed, thyroid hormone receptor β (THRβ)

Embryonic Mediators of Embryo–Uterus Communication, Implantation and Pregnancy
ABSTRACT Successful reproduction in eutherian mammals requires intimate connections between the embryo and uterus, involving adhesion, attachment and placentation, with or without invasion of the endometrium. The complex dialogue between embryo and uterus involves numerous molecules and pathways.

Disrupted endocannabinoid signaling contributes to systemic inflammation in acute pancreatitis
Abstract Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease that can lead to systemic complications in severe cases. The endocannabinoid system has emerged as a potential modulator of inflammation in AP. We investigated the role of the endocannabinoid 2‐arachidonoylglycerol (2‐AG) and the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 during AP.

The Relationship Between (Endo)cannabinoids, the Microbiome and Melanoma
CB1 and CB2 receptors are widely distributed in both normal and cancerous cells. Cannabinoids have a positive impact on reducing tumor growth in mice. A positive relationship exists between CB2 receptors and survival in skin melanoma. However, there is a negative impact on non‐small cell lung cancer and colon cancer, whereas a higher association of CB1

Chemogenetic Activation of G12 Signaling Thickens the Epidermis With Enhanced Barrier Function
In this study, we investigated the role of G12 signaling in the epidermis using a keratinocyte‐specific chemogenetic approach. Activation of G12 signaling promoted keratinocyte differentiation and enhanced epidermal barrier function by upregulating filaggrin, claudin‐1, and ceramide.

Abstract Background and Purpose New synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) are associated with severe adverse effects, including unexpected psychiatric symptoms. These compounds are mainly active through their potent agonism on the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2.
