The cannabinoid agonist DALN positively modulates L-type voltage-dependent calcium-channels in N18TG2 neuroblastoma cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study demonstrates a novel stimulatory effect of a cannabinoid agonist on calcium channels. DALN (1 nM) potentiated 45Ca(2+)-uptake by N18TG2 neuroblastoma cells, an effect that was abolished by the specific CB1 receptor antagonist SR141716A. The stimulation of 45Ca(2+)-uptake by DALN

Cannabinoid withdrawal is dependent upon PKA activation in the cerebellum.

Region-specific up-regulation of the cyclic AMP pathway is considered an important molecular mechanism in the origin of the somatic manifestations of the withdrawal syndrome to known drugs of abuse. Nevertheless, the existence of a withdrawal syndrome after prolonged cannabinoid administration has

Extract from Fructus cannabis activating calcineurin improved learning and memory in mice with chemical drug-induced dysmnesia.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of extract from Fructus cannabis (EFC) that can activate calcineurin on learning and memory impairment induced by chemical drugs in mice. METHODS Bovine brain calcineurin and calmodulin were isolated from frozen tissues. The activity of calcineurin was assayed

Long-term reduction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels and signaling impairment following prenatal treatment with the cannabinoid receptor 1 receptor agonist (R)-(+)-[2,3-dihydro-5-methyl-3-(4-morpholinyl-methyl) pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]-1,4-benzoxazin-6-yl]-1- naphthalenylmethanone.

It is well accepted that adverse life events occurring early in development may alter the correct program of brain maturation leading to enhanced vulnerability to neuropsychiatric disorders. It has recently been demonstrated that prenatal exposure to the cannabinoid receptor 1 agonist

Activation of the Cannabinoid Type 2 Receptor by a Novel Indazole Derivative Normalizes the Survival Pattern of Lymphoblasts from Patients with Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease is a multifactorial disorder for which there is no disease-modifying treatment yet. CB2 receptors have emerged as a promising therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease because they are expressed in neuronal and glial cells and their activation has no psychoactive

Transcriptional changes common to human cocaine, cannabis and phencyclidine abuse.

Only registered users can translate articles

A major goal of drug abuse research is to identify and understand drug-induced changes in brain function that are common to many or all drugs of abuse. As these may underlie drug dependence and addiction, the purpose of the present study was to examine if different drugs of abuse effect changes in

Cannabinoid type 2 (CB2) receptor system modulates paclitaxel-induced microglial dysregulation and central sensitization in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Paclitaxel induces microglial activation and production of proinflammatory mediators in the dorsal horn, which contribute to the development and maintenance of central sensitization and pain behavior. MDA7, 1-((3-benzyl-3-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-yl)carbonyl) piperidine is a novel highly

Role of the endogenous cannabinoid receptor 1 in brain injury induced by chronic intermittent hypoxia in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effect of rimonabant, a cannabinoid receptor type 1 antagonist, on calcium/calmodulin- dependent protein kinase II and cannabinoid receptor type 1 in chronic intermittent hypoxia. METHODS Healthy male rats were divided into control group, intermittent hypoxia

Serum-dependent effects of tamoxifen and cannabinoids upon C6 glioma cell viability.

Only registered users can translate articles

In the present study, the effects of the combination of tamoxifen ((Z)-2[p-(1,2-diphenyl-1-butenyl)phenoxy]-N,N-dimethylamine citrate) and three cannabinoids (Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol [Delta(9)-THC], cannabidiol, and anandamide [AEA]) upon the viability of C6 rat glioma cells was assessed at

Anti-tumoral action of cannabinoids on hepatocellular carcinoma: role of AMPK-dependent activation of autophagy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third cause of cancer-related death worldwide. When these tumors are in advanced stages, few therapeutic options are available. Therefore, it is essential to search for new treatments to fight this disease. In this study, we investigated the effects of

Cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors differentially modulate L- and T-type Ca2+ channels in rat retinal ganglion cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Endocannabinoid signaling system is involved in regulating multiple neuronal functions in the central nervous system by activating G-protein coupled cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors (CB1Rs and CB2Rs). Growing evidence has shown that CB1Rs and CB2Rs are extensively expressed in retinal ganglion

Characterization of anandamide-stimulated cannabinoid receptor signaling in human ULTR myometrial smooth muscle cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Accumulating evidence highlights the importance of the endocannabinoid anandamide (AEA) as a key mediator in reproductive physiology. Current data suggest potential roles for AEA in gametogenesis, fertilization, and parturition. AEA exerts its actions through two G protein-coupled receptors, termed
