Newest firstBackgroundControlled-environment cultivation of medicinal cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) typically optimizes light conditions to enhance the biosynthesis of pharmaceutically important metabolites like cannabinoids. Such experimental strategies may also influence other specialized metabolites like terpenoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, among others. Previous untargeted metabolomics studies testing short-wavelength condi…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabidiol (CBD) is a bioactive phytocannabinoid with considerable pharmacological potential. However, its limited aqueous solubility and high lipophilicity remain significant barriers to its broader pharmaceutical application. In this study, the enzymatic potential of selected filamentous fungi was investigated as a whole-cell biocatalytic platform for the regioselective functionalization of CBD. Sixteen fungal…

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent cause of dementia, characterized by progressive cognitive decline, amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques, and neurofibrillary tangles composed of hyperphosphorylated tau protein. Other tauopathies, including frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) share pathological hallmarks centered on abnormal tau biology…
Understanding the role of biased G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) agonism in receptor signaling may provide novel insights into the opposing effects mediated by cannabinoids, particularly in cancer and cancer metastasis. GPCRs can have more than one active state, a phenomenon called either 'biased agonism', 'functional selectivity', or 'ligand-directed signaling'. However, there are increasing arrays of cannabino…
Open article record in new tab ↗Endocannabinoid (eCB)-binding receptors can be modulated by several ligands and membrane environment, yet the effect of glycosylation remains to be assessed. In this study, we used human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells to interrogate whether expression, cellular localization, and activity of eCB-binding receptors may depend on N-linked glycosylation. Following treatment with tunicamycin (a specific inhibitor of N-link…
