Exposure to Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in vitro and in animal models can significantly impair the differentiation, activation and function of dendritic cells, T cells and B cells. However, studies directly assessing the impact of marijuana smoking on human immunity are lacking. A prospective

BACKGROUND The endocannabinoid system is involved in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis. However, most of the findings in this area have come from experimental studies in animal models or clinical trials on chronic hepatitis C. The roles of cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid receptor 2

HBV represents the most common chronic viral infection and major cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), although its exact role in liver tumorigenesis is unclear. Massive storage of the small (SHBs), middle (MHBs) and large surface (LHBs) HBV envelope proteins leads to cell stress and sustained

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the relationship between marijuana use and sexually transmitted diseases in pregnant women. METHODS A retrospective review of clinic records over a 12-1/2 month period identified all women entering prenatal care. Eighty-six women using no illicit substance other than

Expression of a cannabinoid receptor in baculovirus-infected insect cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

A cannabinoid receptor recombinant baculovirus (AcNPV-THCR) has been constructed and employed to express rat neural cannabinoid receptors. Northern analysis of total RNA from Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells infected with AcNPV-THCR revealed novel hyper-production of a 3.3 kb transcript when

Hepatitis C virus induces the cannabinoid receptor 1.

BACKGROUND Activation of hepatic CB(1) receptors (CB(1)) is associated with steatosis and fibrosis in experimental forms of liver disease. However, CB(1) expression has not been assessed in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC), a disease associated with insulin resistance, steatosis and metabolic

Cannabinoid receptor 1 knockout alleviates hepatic steatosis by downregulating perilipin 2.

Only registered users can translate articles

The endocannabinoid (EC) system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several metabolic diseases, including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). With the current study we aimed to verify the modulatory effect of endocannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1)-signaling on perilipin 2 (PLIN2)-mediated

History of Marijuana Use Does Not Affect Outcomes on the Liver Transplant Waitlist.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Data are limited on marijuana use and its impact on liver transplant (LT) waitlist outcomes. We aimed to assess the risk of waitlist mortality/delisting and likelihood of LT among prior marijuana users and to determine the prevalence and factors associated with marijuana
