Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

Suicide attempt and paranoia persisting for 28 days following heavy delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid and tetrahydrocannabinol use: A case report. [PDF]

PCN Rep
Abstract Background Cannabis contains various cannabinoids, with Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) being the primary psychoactive compound. A non‐psychoactive precursor called Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THC‐A) is converted to Δ9‐THC slowly over time or rapidly when heated. Cannabis use is linked to psychotic outcomes, with increased risk associated

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

Negative symptoms as key features of depression among cannabis users: a preliminary report. [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVE: Cannabis use is frequent among depressed patients and may lead to the so-called "amotivational syndrome", which combines symptoms of affective flattening and loss of emotional reactivity (i.e. the so-called "negative" symptomatology). The aim

Cannabigerol reverses mechanical allodynia through α2A‐adrenergic modulation of thalamocortical signaling in chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a prevalent and treatment‐resistant side effect of platinum‐based chemotherapy, characterised by mechanical allodynia. Cannabigerol (CBG), a non‐psychoactive cannabinoid, has shown antinociceptive potential, but its site and mechanism of action remain unclear.

The development and therapeutic potential of classical and next-generation cannabinoid ligands

Pharmacological Research
The endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex network that plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, and its modulation through cannabinoid ligands has garnered significant interest in pharmacological research. Cannabinoid receptors,

Covalent fluorescent probes for 2‐arachidonoylglycerol metabolic pathways

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent fluorescent probes have emerged as versatile chemical tools to visualise active enzymes in complex biological systems. When tailored for specific applications, ranging from activity‐based protein profiling for drug development to high spatiotemporal resolution imaging of enzymatic activities, these probes provide unique insights into ...

The relationship between the cannabinoids and cardiac remodelling: A comprehensive review of pivotal mechanisms and emerging evidence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cardiac remodelling and fibrosis after myocardial infarction or during chronic diseases, such as arterial and pulmonary hypertension or diabetes mellitus, continue to be the more important prognostic factors in determining survival, and so the search for effective anti‐fibrotic interventions is an important target for research and therapy in cardiology.

Cannabidiol and cannabigerol ameliorate steatotic liver disease via phosphocreatine buffering and lysosomal restoration

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) alleviate hepatic steatosis in obese mice by shifting energy buffering towards phosphocreatine and enhancing lysosomal lipid degradation and trafficking. These effects are associated with increased creatine kinase activity and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) levels, highlighting a previously unrecognised ...

Novel optimization of multi‐mechanistic approaches for the acute treatment of a migraine attack: A review

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To highlight key factors required to optimize multi‐mechanistic approaches with oral combination treatments for the acute management of a migraine attack. Background Given the complex multi‐factorial nature of migraine, combining treatments with different mechanisms of action should improve outcomes compared to monotherapies, but ...
