Effects of neuroendocrine CB1 activity on adult Leydig cells

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2016
Endocannabinoids control male reproduction acting at central and local level via cannabinoid receptors. The cannabinoid receptor CB1 has been characterized in the testis, in somatic and germ cells of mammalian and non-mammalian animal models, and its ...

Assessment of Cannabidiol Supplements Use in Small Animals Practice in Portugal

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the current use of cannabidiol supplements (CBDS) by Portuguese small animal veterinary practitioners. An anonymous online survey questioning the frequency of CBDS use, purpose of use and the perceived outcome was developed using Microsoft Forms, and targeted veterinarians currently working in small animal clinics in

Reduced Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor Binding in Alcohol Dependence Measured with Positron Emission Tomographys

Molecular Psychiatry, 2012
Brain cannabinoid CB1 receptors contribute to alcohol-related behaviors in experimental animals, but their potential role in humans with alcohol dependence is poorly understood.

Maternal obesity during lactation as a hypertensive cardiovascular risk factor in the offspring

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal obesity is a major public health concern, with growing evidence supporting its role in the developmental programming of cardiometabolic disease. Although prenatal mechanisms have been investigated extensively, the contribution of lactation as a postnatal window of cardiovascular (CV) programming remains insufficiently understood ...

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Δ9 Tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabis extracts differentially improve adipoinsular dysfunction in diet‐induced obesity

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend THC and extract administered to diet‐induced obese mice reduced body weight and fat storage. Extract, but not THC, improved glucose clearance by a mechanism that may include restoring adipoinsular function. Abstract Diet‐induced obesity (DIO) is associated with dysregulated adipoinsular axis and endocannabinoid system (eCBS ...

Cellular Distribution of Canonical and Putative Cannabinoid Receptors in Canine Cervical Dorsal Root Ganglia

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
Growing evidence indicates cannabinoid receptors as potential therapeutic targets for chronic pain. Consequently, there is an increasing interest in developing cannabinoid receptor agonists for treating human and veterinary pain. To better understand the

Crystal Structure of the Human Cannabinoid Receptor CB2

Cell, 2019
SUMMARY The cannabinoid receptor CB2 is predominately expressed in the immune system and selective modulation of CB2 without the psychoactivity of CB1 has therapeutic potential in inflammatory, fibrotic and neurodegenerative diseases.

Quantifying Heteromer Partitioning Reveals Inflammation‐Dependent Redistribution of Microglial Adenosine A2A and Cannabinoid CB2 Receptors

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Proinflammatory activation reorganizes microglial A2A and CB2 receptors, promoting their incorporation into stable heteromers and blocking agonist‐induced redistribution. The results reveal those heteromers as potential therapeutic targets in inflammatory contexts.

Antidepressant-Like Effect of Terpineol in an Inflammatory Model of Depression: Involvement of the Cannabinoid System and D2 Dopamine Receptor

Biomolecules, 2020
Depression has a multifactorial etiology that arises from environmental, psychological, genetic, and biological factors. Environmental stress and genetic factors acting through immunological and endocrine responses generate structural and functional ...
