Newest firstLenabasum, a non-psychoactive cannabinoid type-2 receptor (CB2R) agonist, has shown promise in reducing cutaneous disease in Dermatomyositis (DM) patients. Lenabasum activates two distinct receptors: CB2R and the nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ). Our goal was to investigate the dominant mechanism of action leading to pathogenic IFNβ reduction by lenabasum (through CB2R or PPARγ) across…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Lenabasum is a cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB2R) reverse agonist that demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects in vivo and in vitro in dermatomyositis (DM) and is currently being investigated for therapeutic potential. The purpose of our study is to investigate CB2R distribution as well as the effects of lenabasum in DM. Methods Immunohistochemistry staining (IHC) was utilized to examine immune cell and…
The endocannabinoid system has been shown to be involved in various skin functions, such as melanogenesis and the maintenance of redox balance in skin cells exposed to UV radiation, as well as barrier functions, sebaceous gland activity, wound healing and the skin's immune response. In addition to the potential use of cannabinoids in the treatment and prevention of skin cancer, cannabinoid compounds and derivative…
