Newest firstThe enrichment of specific metabolites within the tumor microenvironment is emerging as a driver of tumor progression. Specifically, in prostate cancer (PCa), increased abundance of lactate is associated with primary-to-metastasis tumor spreading by supporting cancer cell invasiveness. Here, we highlight that the endocannabinoid receptor GPR55 is able to sense lactate and consequently trigger PCa cell amoeboid-lik…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-intoxicating phytocannabinoid which has been proposed to possess anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Given the potential for perceptions of pain to limit exercise performance, the aim of the present study was to investigate if 3 weeks of daily CBD supplementation (150 mg day-1) improved performance in a 10-min performance-trial on a cycle ergometer. In a randomized, double-blind…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Studies have shown that the chronic use of cannabis is associated with a decrease in blood pressure. Our previous studies prove that activating the cannabinoid type 2 (CB2) receptor in the brain can effectively reduce blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats; however, the exact mechanism has not been clarified. The objective of this study is to demonstrate that activation of microglial CB2 rece…
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a cannabimimetic compound and lipid messenger, on recovery from muscle damaging exercise. Twenty-eight healthy young male participants attended the laboratory four times on subsequent days. In the first visit, baseline characteristics were recorded before participants were randomized to consume either liquid PEA (167.5 mg Levagen+ wit…
