Abstract Objective Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a drug‐resistant developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). Preclinical drug development for LGS is constrained by a lack of syndrome‐relevant animal models. We aimed to evaluate a Gabrb3+/D120N knock‐in (KI) mouse model of LGS by quantifying atypical absence seizures and epileptic spasms and ...

Cannabinoids act as pleiotropic compounds exerting, among others, a broad-spectrum of neuroprotective effects. These effects have been investigated in the last years in different preclinical models of neurodegeneration, with the cannabinoid type-1 (CB1 ...

ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle atrophy in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) drives loss of muscle strength, function and quality of life in ALS patients. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) regulates muscle homeostasis via regenerative and metabolic processes, and although ECS alterations have been reported in ALS neural tissues, ECS remodelling ...

G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) has been thought to be a putative cannabinoid receptor. However, little is known about its functional role in cannabinoid action and substance use disorders.

The Relationship Between (Endo)cannabinoids, the Microbiome and Melanoma
CB1 and CB2 receptors are widely distributed in both normal and cancerous cells. Cannabinoids have a positive impact on reducing tumor growth in mice. A positive relationship exists between CB2 receptors and survival in skin melanoma. However, there is a negative impact on non‐small cell lung cancer and colon cancer, whereas a higher association of CB1

Background: Marijuana extracts (cannabinoids) have been used for several millennia for pain treatment. Regarding the site of action, cannabinoids are highly promiscuous molecules, but only two cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) have been deeply studied ...

Graphical overview of the effects of the high‐fat, high‐sucrose (HFHS) diet regime and 2‐week cannabigerol (CBG) treatment on the intramuscular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) trafficking and lipid metabolism, with subsequent implications for mitochondrial cardiolipin (CL) composition in the red gastrocnemius muscle.

GPCRs in CAR‐T Cell Immunotherapy: Expanding the Target Landscape and Enhancing Therapeutic Efficacy
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy faces dual challenges of target scarcity and an immunosuppressive microenvironment in solid tumors. This review highlights how G protein‐coupled receptors can serve as both novel targets to expand the therapeutic scope and functional modules to enhance CAR‐T cell efficacy.
