Newest firstCannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive compound from Cannabis sativa, has shown efficacy in treating psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting 1-3% of the global population; however, the mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated CBD's effects on imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis in mice, which were divided into five groups: Control, IMQ, Clobetasol, 0.01% CBD, and 0.1% CBD. After inducing ps…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabinoids, mainly cannabidiol (CBD) and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), are the most studied group of compounds obtained from Cannabis sativa because of their several pharmaceutical properties. Current evidence suggests a crucial role of cannabinoids as potent anti-inflammatory agents for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases; however, the mechanisms remain largely unclear. Cytokine storm, a dysregulate…
Open article record in new tab ↗Purpose of review Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune connective tissue disease in which there is an activation of fibroblast to a myofibroblast that secretes huge amounts of extracellular matrix. Currently, no treatment exists that modifies the fibrosis elements and new therapeutic targets are badly needed. This review examines the current state of treatments and emerging therapeutics. Recent findings Ninte…
Open article record in new tab ↗The poor survival of cells in ischemic sites diminishes the therapeutic efficacy of stem cell therapy. Previously we and others have reported that Cannabinoid receptor type II (CB2) is protective during heart ischemic injury for its anti-oxidative activity. However, whether CB2 activation could improve the survival and therapeutic efficacy of stem cells in ischemic myocardium and the underlying mechanisms remain e…
