Targeting gut dysbiosis against inflammation and impaired autophagy in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Nothing is known about the potential implication of gut microbiota in skeletal muscle disorders. Here, we provide evidence that fecal microbiota composition along with circulating levels of short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and related metabolites are ...

Synthesis, characterization, and application of gold nanostars for the identification of 2-Arachidonoyl glycerol [PDF]
Background. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS) and plays a key role in regulating cognitive and physiological processes.

Endocannabinoids and exercise [PDF]
Exercise induces changes in mental status, particularly analgesia, sedation, anxiolysis, and a sense of wellbeing. The mechanisms underlying these changes remain unknown. Recent findings show that exercise increases serum concentrations of endocannabinoids, suggesting a possible explanation for a number of these changes.

Orexin-A (OX-A) protects the brain against oxidative stress-mediated ischemic injury. Since the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and cannabinoid type-1 (CB1) receptors were previously shown to mediate some of the effects of OX-A exerted ...

Endocannabinoid-Mediated Control of Neural Circuit Excitability and Epileptic Seizures
Research on endocannabinoid signaling has greatly advanced our understanding of how the excitability of neural circuits is controlled in health and disease.

The Microbiome and Gut Endocannabinoid System in the Regulation of Stress Responses and Metabolism
The endocannabinoid system, with its receptors and ligands, is present in the gut epithelium and enteroendocrine cells, and is able to modulate brain functions, both indirectly through circulating gut-derived factors and directly through the vagus nerve,

Endocannabinoid Turnover [PDF]
In this review, we consider the biosynthetic, hydrolytic, and oxidative metabolism of the endocannabinoids anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol. We describe the enzymes associated with these events and their characterization. We identify the inhibitor profile for these enzymes and the status of therapeutic exploitation, which to date has been limited ...

The Epigenetics of the Endocannabinoid System [PDF]
The endocannabinoid system (ES) is a cell-signalling system widely distributed in biological tissues that includes endogenous ligands, receptors, and biosynthetic and hydrolysing machineries. The impairment of the ES has been associated to several pathological conditions like behavioural, neurological, or metabolic disorders and infertility, suggesting

Quantification of the density of cooperative neighboring synapses required to evoke endocannabinoid signaling [PDF]
The spatial pattern of synapse activation may impact on synaptic plasticity. This applies to the synaptically-evoked endocannabinoid-mediated short-term depression at the parallel fiber (PF) to Purkinje cell synapse, the occurrence of which requires ...
