Newest firstIntroduction Cannabidiol has been shown to exert significant anti-inflammatory effects and has demonstrated efficacy in murine models of autoimmune myocarditis, pericarditis, and heart failure. The ARCHER Study assessed whether a pharmaceutically produced cannabidiol formulation showed beneficial effects on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) endpoints known to predict prognosis in this patient population. Methods In…
Open article record in new tab ↗Myocardial ischemia continues to be the first cause of morbimortality in the world; the definitive treatment is reperfusion; however, this action causes additional damage to ischemic myocardial tissue; this forces to seek therapies of cardioprotection to reduce this additional damage. There are many cardioprotective agents; within these, cannabinoids have shown to have beneficial effects, mainly cannabidiol (CBD).…
Background/objectives Endocannabinoids (ECs) are associated with obesity and ectopic fat accumulation, both of which play a role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). The effect of prolonged caloric restriction on ECs in relation to fat distribution and cardiac function is still unknown. Therefore, our aim was to investigate this relationship in obese T2D patients with corona…
G protein coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) is expressed throughout the body, and although its exact physiological function is unknown, studies have suggested a role in the cardiovascular system. In particular, GPR55 has been proposed as mediating the haemodynamic effects of a number of atypical cannabinoid ligands; however this data is conflicting. Thus, given the incongruous nature of our understanding of the GPR55 re…
