Microvascular Effects of Endocannabinoid Signaling in Sepsis: A Mechanistic and Systematic Review. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrocirculation
ABSTRACT Microvascular dysfunction is a central determinant of organ failure in sepsis, reflecting early endothelial activation, increased permeability, and impaired capillary perfusion. Experimental evidence suggests that the endocannabinoid system (ECS) modulates these immunovascular processes, yet mechanistic insights remain dispersed across ...
