Nausea and vomiting (emesis) are important elements in defensive or protective responses that animals use to avoid ingestion or digestion of potentially harmful substances. However, these neurally-mediated responses are at times manifested as symptoms of disease and they are frequently observed as side-effects of a variety of medications, notably those used to treat cancer. Cannabis has long be...
Introduction Although the endocannabinoid system (ECS) is best known for its important neuromodulatory role, it has become apparent in recent years that the physiology of almost every organ is affected by the ECS. This is especially true under pathological conditions, in which an up-regulation of the expression of cannabinoid receptors and increased endocannabinoid production can often be obser...
This study investigated the participation of the hypothalamic endocannabinoid system in the response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge evaluating oxytocin (OXT) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) plasma levels in vivo and their release from hypothalamic fragments in vitro. LPS increased OXT and TNF-alpha release through anandamide-activation of hypothalamic cannabinoid receptor CB(...
Human aortic aneurysms have been associated with inflammation and vascular remodeling. Since the endocannabinoid system modulates inflammation and tissue remodeling, we investigated its components in human aortic aneurysms. We obtained anterior aortic wall samples from patients undergoing elective surgery for aortic aneurysm or coronary artery disease as controls. Histological and molecular ana...
The discovery of the cannabinoid receptors and endocannabinoid ligands has generated a great deal of interest in identifying opportunities for the development of novel cannabinergic therapeutic drugs. Such an effort was first undertaken three decades ago by a number of pharmaceutical industries, but was rewarded with only modest success. However, the newly acquired knowledge on the physiologica...
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a group of neuromodulatory lipids and their receptors, which are widely distributed in mammalian tissues. ECS regulates various cardiovascular, nervous, and immune system functions inside cells. In recent years, there has been a growing body of evidence for the use of synthetic and natural cannabinoids as potential anticancer agents. For instance, the CB1 and...
