Cannabinoid ligands, receptors and enzymes: Pharmacological tools and therapeutic potential
Endocannabinoids have been identified to have roles in numerous physiological and pathological processes. Largely due to the association of the effects of Cannabis administration on mental states, the CNS impact of the endocannabinoid system has been the

Differentiating Nonsuicidal Self‐Injury (NSSI) From Suicide Attempts in Adolescents: A Pilot Study
ABSTRACT Background Differentiating between nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI) and suicide attempts (SA) in adolescents is crucial due to distinct underlying motivations, treatment needs, and potential outcomes associated with each behavior.

Abstract Background Serotonergic and dopaminergic pathways are implicated in Parkinson's disease psychosis (PDP), but preliminary evidence also implicates the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Objectives We examined the association of gray matter volume loss in PDP patients with brain expression of the genes coding for CB1 (cannabinoid type 1) and CB2 ...

Multiple Roles of Cannabinoids in the Olfactory System
The endocannabinoid system is a ubiquitous neuromodulatory network that links internal physiological state to neural circuit function across the brain. While its roles in memory, reward, pain, and motor control are well established, its contribution to ...

Non-opioid Analgesics and the Endocannabinoid System
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs produce antinociceptive effects mainly through peripheral cyclooxygenase inhibition. In opposition to the classical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, paracetamol and dipyrone exert weak anti-inflammatory ...

The endocannabinoid system regulates both ependymoglial and neuronal cell responses to a tail amputation in the axolotl. [PDF]
Abstract Background The endocannabinoid system is a neuromodulatory system implicated in cellular processes during both development and regeneration. The Mexican axolotl, one of only a few vertebrates capable of central nervous system regeneration, was used to examine the role of the endocannabinoid system in the regeneration of the tail and spinal ...
