Newest firstThe 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) products containing less than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in the United States. This legislative shift catalyzed both public and scientific interest in CBD's potential health benefits. However, the rapid expansion of the CBD market has considerably outpaced rigorous scientific research, leaving many health claims largely unsubstantiated. While preclin…
Open article record in new tab ↗Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent degenerative movement disorder largely attributed to the dysfunction of dopamine transmission in the basal ganglia. However, the role of the endocannabinoid (eCB) system (ECS) in PD pathology and symptomatology is often overlooked in discussions. Recent research, including our own, has identified multiple homozygous loss-of-function variants in diacylglycerol lipase β (DAGLB…
Endocannabinoid (eCB), 2-arachidonoyl-glycerol (2-AG), the most abundant eCB in the brain, regulates diverse neural functions. Here we linked multiple homozygous loss-of-function mutations in 2-AG synthase diacylglycerol lipase β (DAGLB) to an early onset autosomal recessive Parkinsonism. DAGLB is the main 2-AG synthase in human and mouse substantia nigra (SN) dopaminergic neurons (DANs). In mice, the SN 2-AG leve…
