Newest firstMetabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), recently redefined from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), highlights the central role of metabolic dysfunction in its pathophysiology. The L-α-lysophosphatidylinositol/G protein-coupled receptor 55 (LPI/GPR55) axis, an element of the endocannabinoidome, has emerged as a key driver behind liver disease progression, leading to the progression of…
Open article record in new tab ↗Pharmacological treatment of metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis remains challenging due to its complex pathophysiology. The endocannabinoidome (eCB) has emerged as a promising therapeutic target given its central role in energy homeostasis and its pharmacological tractability. Western-style diets high in fat and sugar exacerbate metabolic liver disease, highlighting the need for effective interventio…
Background/Objectives: Current inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatments focus on symptomatic relief, highlighting the need for innovative approaches. Dysregulation of the cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor, part of the endocannabinoid system, is linked to colitis. While tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) alleviates colitis via CB1 activation, its psychotropic effects limit clinical use. ZCZ011, a CB1R allosteric modulator, a…
Current therapies for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as olsalazine and cyclosporine, often exhibit limited long-term efficacy and are associated with adverse effects. Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive phytocannabinoid, shows promise for its anti-inflammatory properties, though its effectiveness as a monotherapy remains inconclusive. This study investigates the therapeutic potential of combining low-dos…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabinoids are emerging as promising treatments for inflammatory diseases such as ulcerative colitis. Specifically, cannabinoid 2 (CB2) receptors, which are upregulated during inflammation, have been distinctively linked to anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. HU308, a synthetic cannabinoid developed to activate CB2 receptors selectively, aims to minimize unwanted off-target side effects. This study evaluate…
