Newest firstAntimicrobial resistance demands intensive research on new nonantibiotics and drug repurposing to expand the arsenal of antimicrobial agents. The present work analysed the combination of diclofenac (DFNAC) and cannabidiol (CBD) and evaluated its potentiation and its biocompatibility. The formulation's potency has been tested against Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Es…
Open article record in new tab ↗Glioblastoma remains one of the most aggressive and treatment-resistant malignancies. Current treatment options, such as radio- and chemotherapy, induce oxidative stress-mediated DNA damage leading to cancer cell death, but are also neurotoxic and not efficient in long term. Our study investigated the effects of cannabidiol, celecoxib and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib, individually and in combinations, on U-138 MG gliobla…
Open article record in new tab ↗In this study, we evaluated the combined effect between MLE-15, a modular lytic enzyme composed of four building blocks, and reline, a natural deep eutectic solvent. The bioinformatic analysis allowed us to determine the spatial architecture of MLE-15, whose components were bactericidal peptide cecropin A connected via a flexible linker to the cell wall binding domain (CBD) of mesophilic 201ϕ2 - 1 endolysin and ca…
Background/Objectives: Cannabidiol (CBD) is known for its anti-cancer properties in preclinical models and is increasingly used alongside conventional chemotherapy in cancer treatment. This study aims to evaluate the anti-cancer activity of CBD from Lebanese Cannabis sativa as a monotherapy and in combination with cisplatin or paclitaxel on human ovarian adenocarcinoma cells. Methods: Cytotoxicity of CBD was teste…
Pharmacological synergism is a current strategy for the treatment of pain. However, few studies have been explored to provide evidence of the possible synergism between a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and a cannabinoid agonist, in order to establish which combinations might be effective to manage pain. The aim of this study was to explore the synergism between ibuprofen (IBU) and the synthetic canna…
Purified cannabinoids have been shown to prevent proliferation and induce apoptosis in colorectal carcinoma cell lines. To assess the cytotoxic effect of cannabinoid extracts and purified cannabinoids on both colorectal polyps and normal colonic cells, as well as their synergistic interaction. Various blends were tested to identify the optimal synergistic effect. Methods: Biopsies from polyps and healthy colonic t…
Open article record in new tab ↗Introduction: Colorectal cancer remains the third most common cancer diagnosis and fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Purified cannabinoids have been reported to prevent proliferation, metastasis, and induce apoptosis in a variety of cancer cell types. However, the active compounds from Cannabis sativa flowers and their interactions remain elusive. Research Aim: This study was aimed to spe…
