Peripheral effects of FAAH deficiency on fuel and energy homeostasis: role of dysregulated lysine acetylation.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundFAAH (fatty acid amide hydrolase), primarily expressed in the liver, hydrolyzes the endocannabinoids fatty acid ethanolamides (FAA). Human FAAH gene mutations are associated with increased body weight and obesity.

The evolution and comparative neurobiology of endocannabinoid signalling [PDF]

, 2012
CB(1)- and CB(2)-type cannabinoid receptors mediate effects of the endocannabinoids 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and anandamide in mammals. In canonical endocannabinoid-mediated synaptic plasticity, 2-AG is generated postsynaptically by diacylglycerol ...

Just add water: cannabinoid discrimination in a water T-maze with FAAH(−/−) and FAAH(+/+) mice [PDF]

Behavioural Pharmacology, 2016
Incomplete overlap in the discriminative stimulus effects of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and the endocannabinoids, anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol has been reported in food-reinforced tasks. The aim of this study was to examine cannabinoid discriminative stimulus effects in a nonappetitive procedure.

Inhibition of FAAH confers increased stem cell migration via PPARα

Journal of Lipid Research, 2015
Regenerative activity in tissues of mesenchymal origin depends on the migratory potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The present study focused on inhibitors of the enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), which catalyzes the degradation of ...

Evaluation of the analgesic effect of 4-anilidopiperidine scaffold containing ureas and carbamates [PDF]

, 2016
Fentanyl is a powerful opiate analgesic typically used for the treatment of severe and chronic pain, but its prescription is strongly limited by the well-documented side-effects.

Cannabis sativa and the endogenous cannabinoid system: therapeutic potential for appetite regulation [PDF]

, 2011
The herb Cannabis sativa (C. sativa) has been used in China and on the Indian subcontinent for thousands of years as a medicine. However, since it was brought to the UK and then the rest of the western world in the late 19th century, its use has been a ...

CRISPR interference at the FAAH-OUT genomic region reduces FAAH expression [PDF]

, 2019
AbstractFAAH-OUT encodes a putative long non-coding RNA which is located next to the FAAH gene on human chromosome 1. Recently an ~8 kb microdeletion, that removes upstream regulatory elements and the first 2 exons of FAAH-OUT, was reported in a pain insensitive patient (PFS) with additional clinical symptoms including a happy, non-anxious disposition,

Fibronectin modulates the endocannabinoid system through the cAMP/PKA pathway during human sperm capacitation [PDF]

, 2019
Fibronectin (Fn) enhances human sperm capacitation via the cAMP/PKA pathway, and the endocannabinoid system participates in this process. Moreover, Fn has been linked to endocannabinoid system components in different cellular models, even though no ...
