Newest firstLiver fibrosis is associated with increased rates of morbidity and mortality. At present, there are no specific treatments that can directly reverse hepatic fibrosis. The endocannabinoid system has been found to play a significant role in regulating the development and progression of liver diseases, in addition to having protective effects. In this study, we investigate the protective potential of β-Caryophyllene…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychotomimetic phytocannabinoid derived from Cannabis sativa. It has therapeutic effects in different paradigms of brain injury, acting as a neuroprotectant. As oxidative stress is a primary risk factor for brain damage after neonatal hypoxia, we tested the effect of CBD on oxidative status and non-protein-bound iron accumulation in the immature brain after hypoxia. Moreover, we tested…
Open article record in new tab ↗Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are α/β heterodimeric transcription factors modulating cellular responses to the low oxygen condition. Among three HIF-α isoforms, HIF-3α is the least studied to date. Here we show that oleoylethanolamide (OEA), a physiological lipid known to regulate food intake and metabolism, binds selectively to HIF-3α. Through crystallographic analysis of HIF-3 α/β heterodimer in both apo and…
