Plant‐Derived Melatonin Inhibits Bacterial Virulence via CpxA/R Two‐Component System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived melatonin is sensed by CpxAE48/T51, which inhibits the phosphorylation cascade transmission from CpxAH240 to CpxRD52, resulting in the inhibition of DNA‐binding capacity of CpxR and subsequent T3SS genes expression in Pst DC3000. ABSTRACT In defending against pathogens, plants deploy diverse secondary metabolites and signaling molecules ...

Cannabinoid-dependent potentiation of inhibition at eye opening in mouse V1

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Cannabinoid signaling is a well established regulator of synaptic transmission. Recent work demonstrated that cannabinoid release is necessary for the induction of inhibitory synaptic plasticity.

Cognitive impairment induced by delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol occurs through heteromers between cannabinoid CB1 and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors [PDF]

, 2015
Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive compound of marijuana, induces numerous undesirable effects, including memory impairments, anxiety, and dependence.

Foreign Language Learning in Older Adults Modifies Resting‐State Functional Connectivity Between the Subcortical Structures and the Cortex

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Foreign language learning in older adults reorganizes thalamic and caudate connectivity, in a process topographically overlapping with the expression of receptors and genes related to neuroplasticity. ABSTRACT Objectives Neuroimaging studies suggest that Foreign Language Learning (FLL) influences resting‐state functional connectivity (rs‐FC) within the

A co-ultramicronized palmitoylethanolamide/luteolin composite mitigates clinical score and disease-relevant molecular markers in a mouse model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Persistent and/or recurrent inflammatory processes are the main factor leading to multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. The composite ultramicronized palmitoylethanolamide, an endogenous N-acylethanolamine, combined with the flavonoid luteolin ...

Reduced CB1 Cannabinoid Receptor Expression in Alzheimer's Disease and Transgenic Mouse Models

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
CB1 receptor (CB1R) expression was significantly reduced in the hippocampus, medial frontal gyrus, and superior temporal gyrus of Alzheimer's patients. CB1R levels negatively correlated with amyloid‐β and tau pathology. In addition, CB1R expression was also reduced in the cortex of 5xFAD mice and in the hippocampus of Tg4‐42 mice.

Metabolic fate of drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances: A pilot study on a novel workflow using a zebrafish embryo model combined with human microdosing

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The aim of this study was to develop a novel workflow to identify human urine biomarkers for drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances. Metabolites of amphetamine, cocaine, LSD, MDMA, methamphetamine, THC, MDMB‐CHMICA, and MDPPP were first identified in a zebrafish embryo (ZE) metabolism study followed by comparison to most abundant human ...

Cannabinoids modulate food preference and consumption in Drosophila melanogaster

Scientific Reports, 2021
Cannabinoids have an important role in regulating feeding behaviors via cannabinoid receptors in mammals. Cannabinoids also exhibit potential therapeutic functions in Drosophila melanogaster, or fruit fly that lacks cannabinoid receptors.
