Newest firstIntroduction Activation of TRPV4 ion channel during acute lung injury (ALI) exacerbates lung dysfunction by promoting edema and inflammation. Pharmacological inhibition of TRPV4 signaling in the lungs offers protective benefits, reducing vascular leakage, enhancing blood oxygenation, and alleviating edema. Objectives We designed, synthesized, and preclinically evaluated cannabidiol-derived TRPV4 channel inhibitors…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background: Low-THC Cannabis sativa L. extracts are commonly believed to offer potential alternatives to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for inflammatory pain management. This study evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of two C. sativa extracts (Tygra, Dora) and pure cannabidiol (CBD) compared with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in a carrageenan-induced rat paw inflammation model. Materials and Metho…
Cannabis sativa root has traditionally been used to relieve pain and inflammation, but its pharmacological properties remain underexplored due to low levels of psychoactive cannabinoids. This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects of the ethyl acetate fraction of Cannabis sativa root (CSREA) using in vivo rodent pain models. Mice were subjected to formalin and acetic acid-indu…
Brain edema is a critical complication arising from stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI) with an important impact on patient recovery and can lead to long-term consequences. Therapeutic options to reduce edema progression are limited with variable patient outcomes. Aquaporin 4 (AQP4) is a water channel that allows bidirectional water diffusion across the astrocyte membrane and participates in the distinct phase…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabis sativa L. contains more than 80 cannabinoids, among which cannabidiol (CBD) is the main neuroactive component. We aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory efficacy of CBD in vitro and in vivo isolated from "Pink pepper", a novel hemp cultivar, by repeating the method of selecting and cultivating individuals with the highest CBD content. We investigated the effects of CBD on inflammatory markers elevated…
Open article record in new tab ↗The endocannabinoid system represents an integrated neuronal network involved in the control of several organisms' functions, such as feeding behavior. A series of hybrids of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichloro-phenyl)-4-methyl-N-(piperidin-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (mimonabant), a well-known inverse agonist of the type-1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1), once used as an antiobesity drug, and the N-(2S)-substitutes…
Celastrol, a major active ingredient of Chinese herb Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. (thunder god vine), has exhibited a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammation, anti-cancer and immunosuppression. In the present study, we used animal models of inflammatory pain and neuropathic pain, generated by carrageenan injection and spared nerve injury (SNI), respectively, to evaluate the eff…
