Extended‐release buprenorphine in adults with opioid use disorder involving poppy seed tea: An 18‐month retrospective case series

The American Journal on Addictions, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Poppy seed tea (PST) contains unpredictable opioid concentrations, destabilising tolerance and increasing overdose risk. Extended‐release buprenorphine (BUP‐XR) provides sustained coverage without daily dosing. Methods Eighteen‐month follow‐up of adults (N = 3) with opioid use disorder (OUD) involving PST in Australia.

Toxicokinetic modelling of the synthetic cannabinoid 5F‐MDMB‐P7AICA and its main metabolite in pigs following pulmonary administration

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Since their emergence on the drug market, synthetic cannabinoids (SC) are still gaining increasing importance in forensic toxicology. The representatives of the so‐called new psychoactive substances have in common that they have not undergone preclinical safety studies. Hence, knowledge on toxicokinetic (TK) data is sparse.

The synthetic cannabinoids menace: a review of health risks and toxicity

European Journal of Medical Research
Synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) are chemically classified as psychoactive substances that target the endocannabinoid system in many body organs. SCs can initiate pathophysiological changes in many tissues which can be severe enough to damage the normal ...

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

Cannabigerol reverses mechanical allodynia through α2A‐adrenergic modulation of thalamocortical signaling in chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a prevalent and treatment‐resistant side effect of platinum‐based chemotherapy, characterised by mechanical allodynia. Cannabigerol (CBG), a non‐psychoactive cannabinoid, has shown antinociceptive potential, but its site and mechanism of action remain unclear.

Covalent fluorescent probes for 2‐arachidonoylglycerol metabolic pathways

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent fluorescent probes have emerged as versatile chemical tools to visualise active enzymes in complex biological systems. When tailored for specific applications, ranging from activity‐based protein profiling for drug development to high spatiotemporal resolution imaging of enzymatic activities, these probes provide unique insights into ...

The role of the CNR1 gene in schizophrenia: a systematic review including unpublished data

Brazilian Journal of Psychiatry
Objective: Schizophrenia is a multifactorial disorder. It is known that a combination of extensive multiple common alleles may be involved in its etiology, each contributing with a small to moderate effect, and, possibly, some rare alleles with a much ...

Update on the Role of Cannabinoid Receptors after Ischemic Stroke

Mediators of Inflammation, 2012
Cannabinoids are considered as key mediators in the pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases, including atherosclerosis. In particular, they have been shown to reduce the ischemic injury after acute cardiovascular events, such as acute myocardial ...
