Newest firstOsteoporosis (OP) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by reduced bone mass and impaired bone microstructure, posing a significant global health threat. Mitochondria, as the body's energy regulators, participate in numerous critical biological processes, and their dysfunction is a precipitating factor in various diseases. Accumulating evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction-including abnormalitie…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background/objectives: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive constituent of Cannabis sativa, which has potential skeletal benefits through modulation of bone cell function and inflammatory signalling. However, evidence of its effects and mechanisms in bone health remains fragmented. This scoping review summarised the current findings on the impact of CBD on bone outcomes and its mechanisms of action. Methods: A…
Open article record in new tab ↗Aim Breast cancer frequently metastasizes to bones. The interaction between breast cancer cells and bone cells results in osteolytic lesions by disrupting the balance between osteoblast-mediated bone production and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. This study aims to investigate the effects of the cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2) agonist, GW405833, on interactions between breast cancer cells and osteoblasts as…
Open article record in new tab ↗As cannabinoid CB2 receptors (CB2R) possess various pharmacological effects-including anti-epilepsy, analgesia, anti-inflammation, anti-fibrosis, and regulation of bone metabolism-without the psychoactive side effects induced by cannabinoid CB1R activation, they have become the focus of research and development of new target drugs in recent years. The present study was intended to (1) establish a double luciferase…
Multiple myeloma (MM) patients develop osteolysis characterised by excessive osteoclastic bone destruction and lack of osteoblast bone formation. Pharmacological manipulation of monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), an enzyme responsible for the degradation of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG), reduced skeletal tumour burden and osteolysis associated with osteosarcoma and advanced breast and prostate ca…
