Newest firstIt is well established that phenolic compounds from plant sources impact readouts of cell health such as reduced radical and reactive oxygen species. However, it is unclear if specific phenolic structures impact other cellular processes or proteins, such as the evolutionary conserved deacetylase Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), and if phenolic combinations interact synergistically to do so. We observed that structurally diverse…
Open article record in new tab ↗BACKGROUND: With aging emerging as a global challenge linked to chronic diseases, identifying interventions that support a healthy lifespan and health span has become imperative. Cannabinoids derived from cannabis, particularly cannabidiol (CBD) and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), have gained attention for their potential to promote healthy aging through interactions with the endocannabinoid system. While CBD has o…
Open article record in new tab ↗There is a significant global upsurge in the number and proportion of older persons in the population. With this comes an increasing prevalence of age-related conditions which pose a major challenge to healthcare systems. The development of anti-ageing treatments may help meet this challenge by targeting the ageing process which is a common denominator to many health problems. Cannabis-like compounds (cannabinoids…
Open article record in new tab ↗The endocannabinoid (ECB) system has recently been considered a potential treatment target for various clinical disorders. However, research around age- and sex-related changes within the ECB system is relatively limited. To improve our understanding of these changes, the current study measured arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA), 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG), oleoylethanolamine (OEA), palmitoylethanolamine (PEA), a…
To evaluate whether a peculiar plasma profile of fatty acids and endocannabinoidome (eCBome)-related mediators may be associated to longevity, we assessed them in octogenarians (Old; n=42) living in the east-central mountain area of Sardinia, a High-Longevity Zone (HLZ), compared to sexagenarian (Young; n=21) subjects from the same area, and to Olds (n=22) from the Northern Sardinia indicated as Lower-Longevity Zo…
Introduction: Despite widespread use of cannabidiol (CBD), no lifelong toxicity study has been published to date. Caenorhabditis elegans is often used in preclinical lifelong toxicity studies, due to an estimated 60-80% of their genes having a human ortholog, and their short lifespan of ∼2-3 weeks. In this study, we examined both acute and long-term exposure studies of CBD at physiologically relevant concentration…
Open article record in new tab ↗Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and critical complication in the clinical setting. In rodents, AKI can be effectively prevented through caloric restriction (CR), which has also been shown to increase lifespan in many species. In Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), longevity studies revealed that a marked CR-induced reduction of endocannabinoids may be a key mechanism. Thus, we hypothesized that regulation…
Introduction The aim of this review was to systemically analyse trials evaluating the efficacy of routine on-table cholangiography (R-OTC) versus no on-table cholangiography (N-OTC) in patients undergoing cholecystectomy. Methods Randomised trials evaluating R-OTC versus N-OTC in patients undergoing cholecystectomy were selected and analysed. Results Four trials (1 randomised controlled trial on open cholecystecto…
