Newest firstObjective To design and synthesize a series of tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) derivatives bearing α, β-unsaturated carbonyl moieties, evaluate their anticancer activities, screen potential candidates for colorectal cancer (CRC) therapy, and assess their biological activities. Methods THC derivatives were synthesized in high yield via Knoevenagel condensation reaction, and their anticancer activities were evaluated in HC…
Open article record in new tab ↗This study investigates the potential of cannabidiol (CBD), one major cannabinoid of the plant Cannabis sativa, alone and in combination with a terpene-enriched extract from Humulus lupulus ("Hops 1"), on the LPS-response of RAW 264.7 macrophages as an established in vitro model of inflammation. With the present study, we could support earlier findings of the anti-inflammatory potential of CBD, which showed a dose…
Open article record in new tab ↗Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) of cannabis is the main psychoactive component which is a global significant concern to human health. Evaluation on THC reported its drastic effect on the brain dopaminergic (DAergic) system stimulating mesolimbic DA containing neurons thereby increasing the level of striatal DA. Cannabidiol (CBD), with its anxiolytic and anti-psychotic property, is potent to ameliorate the THC-induce…
Open article record in new tab ↗Endocannabinoid system is related with various physiological and cognitive processes including fertility, pregnancy, during pre- and postnatal development, pain-sensation, mood, appetite, and memory. In the latest decades, an important milestone concerning the endocannabinoid system was the discovery of the existence of the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2. Anandamide was the first reported endogenous metabolite,…
Open article record in new tab ↗Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) is a major metabolite of curcumin and plays an important role in curcumin-induced biological effects. THC is a promising preventive and chemotherapeutic agent for cancer. A series of new pyrazole derivatives of THC have been synthesized as potent anticancer agents. Direct condensation of THC with various substituted hydrazines leads to new pyrazole derivatives of THC (1-18). The prepared c…
