Efficacy of omega‐3 fatty acids as a functional food: a multifaceted approach to health reinforcement

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 8, Page 4521-4549, June 2026.
Abstract Omega‐3 fatty acids (omega‐3s) are polyunsaturated fatty acids linked with numerous health benefits. Omega‐3s exhibit multifaceted activities through various mechanisms. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) alleviates oxidative stress by lowering reactive oxygen species and improving oxidative stress in brain tissues and acts against neurodegenerative ...

Chemical synthesis, pharmacological characterization, and possible formation in unicellular fungi of 3-hydroxy-anandamide1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
The fungal pathogen Candida albicans transforms arachidonic acid (AA) into 3-hydroxyarachidonic acid [3(R)-HETE], and we investigated if its nonpathogenic and 3(R)-HETE-producing close relative, Dipodascopsis uninucleata, could similarly transform the ...

Transcriptome assemblies for two drug‐type cannabis chemotypes by long‐read RNA sequencing

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Cannabis sativa has undergone over 10,000 years of domestication, resulting in extensive genetic and phenotypic diversity among cultivated chemotypes. Increased medical and recreational use of specialized metabolites accumulating in cannabis glandular trichomes—primarily the cannabinoids ∆9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD)—has ...

Identification of Novel Predictive Biomarkers for Endometrial Malignancies: N-Acylethanolamines

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Objective: To identify new biochemical markers for endometrial cancer (EC). Recent evidence suggests that members of the endocannabinoid system (N-acylethanolamines) that bind to and activate receptors that are dysregulated in EC are involved in this ...

Cannabinoid CB(1) receptor stimulation affords neuroprotection in MPTP-induced neurotoxicity by attenuating S100B up-regulation in vitro.

open access: yes, 2007
In this study, we investigated the mechanism of S100B neurotoxicity and the effect of cannabinoids, in C6 cells treated with 1-methyl-4-phenyl 1,2,3,6 tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) and co-cultured with differentiated PC12 cells.

Adolescent cannabis use and psychological distress from 2013 to 2023: A population‐based study in Ontario, Canada

open access: yesAddiction, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 1495-1507, June 2026.
Abstract Background and aims Epidemiologic research suggests that adolescent cannabis use is associated with psychological distress (i.e. depression and anxiety symptoms); however, most studies have relied on 20th‐century data, when cannabis was significantly less potent than today.
