A New Problem of Adolescents: “Bonsai”

Journal of Pediatric Research, 2017
Synthetic cannabinoids have been increasingly used by adolescents in the recent years. In our country, synthetic cannabinoids are known as “bonsai”. They may cause neuropsychiatric effects such as psychosis, agitation, ataxia, convulsion, hallucinations,

A Scoping Systematic Review of Cannabis Use in Endometriosis

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endometriosis, affecting 6%–10% of reproductive‐age women, causes chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. Current treatments have limitations and consequently there is rising interest in effects of cannabis on pain and inflammation associated with endometriosis.

Synthetic CB1 Cannabinoids Promote Tunneling Nanotube Communication, Cellular Migration, and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Pancreatic PANC-1 and Colorectal SW-620 Cancer Cell Lines

Cells
Metastasizing cancer cells surreptitiously can adapt to metabolic activity during their invasion. By initiating their communications for invasion, cancer cells can reprogram their cellular activities to initiate their proliferation and migration and ...

Single oral administration of dronabinol increases ocular blood flow in patients with glaucoma

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, primarily driven by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Still, some patients progress despite significant IOP lowering, potentially due to impaired ocular blood flow. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dronabinol, a synthetic tetrahydrocannabinol derivative, on ...

Toxicokinetic modelling of the synthetic cannabinoid 5F‐MDMB‐P7AICA and its main metabolite in pigs following pulmonary administration

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Since their emergence on the drug market, synthetic cannabinoids (SC) are still gaining increasing importance in forensic toxicology. The representatives of the so‐called new psychoactive substances have in common that they have not undergone preclinical safety studies. Hence, knowledge on toxicokinetic (TK) data is sparse.

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.

Sex‐specific impact of repeated adolescent vapour exposure to JWH‐018 on dopamine response, behaviour and pharmacokinetics across adolescence and adulthood

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Alarming trends show that vaping e‐cigarettes containing synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists, such as JWH‐018, is increasing among youth. However, the effects of these trends are unclear in both sexes. We therefore characterized the neuropharmacological effects of adolescent JWH‐018 inhalation in male and female rats.

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.
