Newest firstBackground: Cannabidiol (CBD) exerts diverse metabolic effects, yet its influence on intestinal lipid metabolism remains unclear. Methods: In this study, we investigated whether short-term (one-week) CBD treatment affects lipid absorption and transport through the lymphatic system using a validated lymph fistula model. Results: CBD treatment significantly enhanced the transport of radiolabeled triglycerides throug…
Open article record in new tab ↗The consumption of fructose is increasing day by day. Understanding the impact of increasing fructose consumption on the small intestine is crucial since the small intestine processes fructose into glucose. ∆9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a key cannabinoid, interacts with CB1 and CB2 receptors in the gastrointestinal tract, potentially mitigating inflammation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects…
The function of small intestinal monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) is unknown. Its expression in this tissue is surprising because one of the primary functions of the small intestine is to convert diet-derived MGs to triacylglycerol (TG), and not to degrade them. To elucidate the function of intestinal MGL, we generated transgenic mice that over-express MGL specifically in small intestine (iMGL mice). After only 3 wee…
