Newest firstCB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors are members of the GPCR superfamily that modulate the effects of endocannabinoids. CB1 is the most abundant CB receptor in the central nervous system, while CB2 is present both peripherally and in the brain. CB2 plays a role in inflammation, as well as neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders. To identify new ligands for CB2, we screened a library of FDA-approved drugs for acti…
Open article record in new tab ↗The use of cannabidiol (CBD) for treating brain disorders has gained increasing interest. While the mechanism of action of CBD in these conditions is still under investigation, CBD has been shown to affect numerous different drug targets in the brain that are involved in brain disorders. Here we review the preclinical and clinical evidence on the potential therapeutic use of CBD in treating various brain disorders…
Open article record in new tab ↗Molecular imaging, which allows the real-time visualization, characterization and measurement of biological processes, is becoming increasingly used in neuroscience research. Scintigraphy techniques such as single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) provide qualitative and quantitative measurement of brain activity in both physiological and pathological states. Labora…
