Newest firstCentral nervous system disorders drive disability, yet many neuroactive candidates fail because the brain is a hard compartment to dose. Plant-derived molecules spanning polyphenols, alkaloids, terpenoids, and cannabinoids are attractive because their pleiotropic actions can engage oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and circuit dysfunction. In practice, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) restricts most native phytoch…
Open article record in new tab ↗Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. Among the diverse pathological features of AD, amyloid beta (Aβ) aggregation and neuroinflammation are recognized as central and interlinked mechanisms driving disease progression. This review focuses specifically on these two processes and highlights current pharmacological limitations in mod…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background/Objective: Cannabidiol (CBD) has gained increasing interest due to its multifaceted anticancer properties and favourable safety profile. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a highly aggressive brain tumour with limited treatment options, represents a compelling target for CBD-based therapies. In this study, we report the rational design of two distinct formulations of lipid nanocapsules (LNCs) co-encapsulati…
Open article record in new tab ↗Glioblastoma (GBM), a devastating brain malignancy, resists conventional therapies due to molecular heterogeneity and the blood-brain barrier's significant restriction on drug delivery. Cannabinoids like WIN 55,212-2 show promise but are limited by poor solubility and systemic toxicity. To address these challenges, we evaluated styrene-maleic acid (SMA) micellar encapsulation of WIN 55,212-2 (SMA-WIN) against free…
The field of nanomedicine offers revolutionary potential to reshape the discovery and development of therapeutics for diverse human diseases. However, its application has been limited in improving Substance Use Disorders (SUDs), which represent a profound public health crisis, including major types such as opioid, alcohol, stimulant, and cannabis use disorders. Pharmacotherapy, a cornerstone of SUD management, has…
Open article record in new tab ↗Glioma is the most common malignant tumor in central nervous system, with significant health burdens to patients. Due to the intrinsic characteristics of glioma and the lack of breakthroughs in treatment modalities, the prognosis for most patients remains poor. This results in a heavy psychological and financial load worldwide. In recent years, cannabidiol (CBD) has garnered widespread attention and research due t…
Open article record in new tab ↗Purpose of review This manuscript summarizes novel clinical and interventional approaches in the management of chronic, nociceptive, and neuropathic pain. Recent findings Pain can be defined as a feeling of physical or emotional distress caused by an external stimulus. Pain can be grouped into distinct types according to characteristics including neuropathic pain, which is a pain caused by disease or lesion in the…
Cancer is a complex disease that affects millions of people and remains a major public health problem worldwide. Conventional cancer treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy, have limited achievements and multiple drawbacks, among which are healthy tissue damage and multidrug-resistant phenotype onset. Increasing evidence shows that many plants' natural products, as well as thei…
Cannabis and its natural derivatives have emerged as promising therapeutics for multiple pathological and nonpathological medical conditions. For example, cannabinoids, the most popular and biologically active chemicals in cannabis, aid in many clinical ailments, including pain, inflammation, epilepsy, sleep disturbances or insomnia, multiple sclerosis, anorexia, schizophrenia, neurodegenerative diseases, anti-nau…
Open article record in new tab ↗One of the most common complications of cancer chemotherapy is oral mucositis (OM), a serious kind of oral ulceration, but its effective treatment remains a serious challenge. In this study, we used deoxycholic acid and fucoidan to prepare inflammation-targeting nanomicelles (FD), because fucoidan can target inflammation due to its high binding affinity for P-selectin. The hydrophobic anti-inflammatory drug cannab…
