The photoswitchable cannabinoid azo‐HU308 enables optical control of Ca2+ dynamics in INS‐1 β‐cells via off‐target effects on TRPC channels

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 520-531, March 2026.
Light activation of the photoswitchable cannabinoid ligand azo‐HU308 triggers Ca2+ influx in pancreatic β‐cells through TRPC channels, independent of CB2 cannabinoid receptors. This reveals a non‐GPCR pathway for cannabinoid modulation of β‐cell Ca2+ dynamics and establishes azo‐HU308 as an optical tool to study cannabinoid signaling through TRP ...

Cytotoxicity Potency of Cannabinoids Is by Serum Supplementation: Implications for In Vitro Cancer Studies

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fetal calf serum (FCS) is a key supplement in cell culture, providing nutrients, and growth factors that support cancer cell proliferation. Studies suggest that compound cytotoxicity profiles in vitro vary depending on FCS concentration in culture medium. The study aimed to examine how extracellular conditions influence the in vitro

Participants with Normal Weight or with Obesity Show Different Relationships of 6-n-Propylthiouracil (PROP) Taster Status with BMI and Plasma Endocannabinoids

Scientific Reports, 2017
Reduced taste sensitivity to 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP), a genetic trait regarded as a general index for oral chemosensory perception, has been associated with a calorie-rich food preference and lower circulating endocannabinoid levels in participants ...

Cannabichromene variation in hemp cultivars

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Cannabichromene (CBC) is a nonpsychoactive cannabinoid with pharmaceutical potential that is attracting significant interest for its potential therapeutic applications. However, the factors governing CBC production in Cannabis sativa remain largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the variation in CBC accumulation within different Type

The endocannabinoid system regulates both ependymoglial and neuronal cell responses to a tail amputation in the axolotl

Developmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 3, Page 321-339, March 2026.
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 ...

Stress Characteristics and Their Associations With Pain Intensity: An Ecological Momentary Assessment Study

European Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to understand the associations between stress intensity, characteristics that trigger a physiological stress responses (Sense of lack of control, social evaluative Threat, Unpredictability, Novelty; STUN) and the experience of momentary pain intensity and its variability among adults living with chronic low back ...

Milk Fat Globule Membrane Supplementation Attenuates Cognitive Impairment in APP/PS1 Mice via Suppressing Neuroinflammation in a Gut Microbiota‐Mediated Serum Resolvin D1/Anandamide Manner

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
MFGM modulated gut microbiota accompanied by the increased serum RVD1 and AEA levels, which subsequently regulated the miRNA profile. This modulation alleviated neuroinflammation via suppressing the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling and microglial activation, thereby attenuating AD‐related cognitive impairment both in vivo and in vitro.

Dendritic spike induction of postsynaptic cerebellar LTP [PDF]

, 2008
The architecture of parallel fiber (PF) axons contacting cerebellar Purkinje neurons (PNs) retains spatial information over long distances. PF synapses can trigger local dendritic calcium spikes, but whether and how this calcium signal leads to plastic ...
