Newest firstGlioblastoma remains one of the most aggressive and treatment-resistant malignancies. Current treatment options, such as radio- and chemotherapy, induce oxidative stress-mediated DNA damage leading to cancer cell death, but are also neurotoxic and not efficient in long term. Our study investigated the effects of cannabidiol, celecoxib and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib, individually and in combinations, on U-138 MG gliobla…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Endocannabinoids are showing great promise as effective mediators for controlling joint inflammation and pain. One strategy that could be harnessed to promote endogenous cannabinoid function is to inhibit the enzymatic break down of endocannabinoids locally in the joint. KML29 is an inhibitor of monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) activity which has been shown to promote increased 2-arachodonylglycerol (2-AG…
Open article record in new tab ↗Although cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors (coxibs) are effective in controlling inflammation, pain, and tumorigenesis, their use is limited by the recent revelation of increased adverse cardiovascular events. The mechanistic basis of this side effect is not well understood. We show that the metabolism of endocannabinoids by the endothelial cell COX-2 coupled to the prostacyclin (PGI(2)) synthase (PGIS) activates…
